18.3-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 8 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 7,3 Hektar mit 1.3 km Ufer. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.3) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 76% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 0.5 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.3 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Twernsee, 0 km Richtung Süden.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 7.5 m, wintering in 2.5 to 8 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 7.5 m range, prime in fall. Time it for early morning and the evening.
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 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (6.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 8 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 7.5 m that scores prime in fall. 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 (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7.5 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 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, 0.5 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 (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 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 2.5 to 8 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 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 (0.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 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 2.5 to 8 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 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.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny dry fly |

| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Tiny mormyshka |
Spring tench on Kleiner Twernsee 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 2.5 to 8 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.

Kleiner Twernsee is about 27 ft (8 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 Twernsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 8 Meter (27 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target common bream, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, tench, white bream, european eel, bleak, burbot, ruffe, common carp, zander, european smelt, vendace on Kleiner Twernsee. This isn't a survey of the lake — none is on record for it — but an informed estimate from the species listed for the nearest surveyed lakes in the region, filtered to this lake's depth and habitat.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 25 ft of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For common bream, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. 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 Twernsee is regulated by the MLEUV Brandenburg (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.
