139.5-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 15 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 56 Hektar mit 3.5 km Ufer. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.3) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 28% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.1 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer Präßnicksee, 1.6 km Richtung Westen.

Spring puts bleak in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 0.5 to 4.5 m, wintering in 3 to 10 m. Spring bleak concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | open water | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (10 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 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 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 5.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 11 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring roach. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring puts rudd in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 0.5 to 3.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 9 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring rudd. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 3.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | open water | Micro jig |
| Winter | 3.5 to 9 m | midday | open water | Tiny mormyshka |
Spring tench on Kleiner Prüßnicksee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 3.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 9 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday | open water | |
| Winter | 3.5 to 9 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) |
