38-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 4.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Auf der Karte umfasst Karower See 15 Hektar hinter 2.3 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.6) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 0.8 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.3 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Cossensee, 1.6 km Richtung Nordwesten.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Karower See, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 5 m (15 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Hecht und Karpfen. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des LUNG Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 4.5 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. Spring european perch concentrate at Back-bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (4 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (4 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 1.5 to 4.5 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: common carp sit in 0.5 to 3 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 4.5 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 0.5 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (1 m) | |
| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 m) | |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) |
Come spring, look for roach tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 4.5 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 0.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig is the honest summer answer here.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |

| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring rudd on Karower See hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 0.5 to 3.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 0.5 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon.

Spring puts tench in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 3.5 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Spring tench concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 0.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

6 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 4 m, is the deepest of them.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Karower See specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Karower See is about 15 ft (5 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Karower See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 5 Meter (15 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, common carp, roach, rudd, tench on Karower See. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Karower See is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
