6532-acre Kassari-Õunaku Bay. North West Estonia coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 official Estonian E50M hydrographic DTM / traceable CDI assessed contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Estonian WFD named coastal assessment water in West Estonian Archipelago. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 5 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Veekogu joonistub 2 642 hektari suurusena, kallast 30.7 km. Kaldajoon on mõõdukalt liigestatud (indeks 1.7). Umbes 97% pinnast on madalam kui ~5 m — seal elab toiduahel. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 12.6 km, kõige laiemas kohas 4.3 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Kassari-Õunaku Bay - North, 8 km itta.

Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 1.5 to 5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Weed flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Suvi | 1.5 to 5 m | dawn | Deepest basin (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Sügis | 1.5 to 5 m | midday | Deepest basin (5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talv | 1.5 to 5 m | midday & dawn | Deepest basin (5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 1.5 to 5 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Weed flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.

Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. They move out to 1.5 to 5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Sharp break: a drop-off around 2 m that scores prime in fall. Best bite is the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Rock reef (0.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |

| Sügis | 1.5 to 5 m | dusk & night | Sharp break (2 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Talv | 1.5 to 5 m | dusk & dawn | Deepest basin (5 m) | Slow blade bait |
When the water first warms, atlantic herring slide up into 1 to 5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1.5 to 5 m, winter 1.5 to 5 m. Start at Deepest basin. It's a deep basin holding about 5 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a herring feather rig or a small silver jig rigged through the warm months.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: european flounder in 1 to 5 m. The depth story barely changes: 1 to 5 m through summer, 1.5 to 5 m in winter. The spot to know is Feeding flat, a feeding flat in about 2.5 m of water that rates prime for european flounder in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a bottom jig with spinner blade gets it done.

When the water first warms, sea trout slide up into 1 to 5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1.5 to 5 m, winter 1 to 5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Sharp break: a drop-off around 2 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon rigged through the warm months.

Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Estonia waters are set by the Keskkonnaamet (Estonian Environmental Board coastal fishing rules) — and special regulations can apply to Kassari-Õunaku Bay - North West specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Before every Estonian coastal trip, check the current Keskkonnaamet fishing-right requirements, protected-species rules, seasonal closures, river-mouth restrictions, minimum sizes, gear limits and any area-specific conservation measures. A mapped contour, fishing-spot marker, species roster or nearby harbour is planning context only. It never grants fishing or retention rights, shoreline entry, parking, launching access, permission to enter a port, or safe-navigation clearance; local signs, land ownership, weather, ice and vessel traffic still control.

Official coastal monitoring from Estonia national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the european perch, northern pike, zander, atlantic herring, european flounder, sea trout, european whitefish, atlantic salmon roster for Kassari-Õunaku Bay - North West. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Weed flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
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.
