9-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 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 Kleiner See 3,6 Hektar hinter 0.8 km Uferlinie. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.1) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer See, 0 km Richtung Nordosten.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Kleiner See, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 5 m (17 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch und Hecht. 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 1.5 to 5 m before dropping to 1.5 to 5 m for winter. Fall european perch concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 4.5 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 | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for common bream 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 Deep basin: a deep basin around 4.5 m that scores prime in fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 1.5 to 5 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 2.5 m, rated prime for fall 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 | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 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 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 | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for roach tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 5 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 5 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig is the honest summer answer here.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 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 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring rudd on Kleiner 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 5 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 4.5 m, prime for winter. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon.

| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tiny mormyshka |
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 5 m. Winter tench concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 4.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

3 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 4.5 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 Kleiner 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.

Kleiner See is about 17 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.
Kleiner See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 5 Meter (17 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, common bream, northern pike, roach, rudd, tench on Kleiner 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.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 15 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. 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 Kleiner 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.
