625.2-acre lake in Estonia. The lake tops out around 3.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Veekogu joonistub 254 hektari suurusena, kallast 9 km, saari on 2. Kaldajoon on mõõdukalt liigestatud (indeks 1.6). Kogu veekogu on madalam kui ~5 m — taimestik ja söödakala kaldast kaldani. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 3.1 km, kõige laiemas kohas 1.3 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Kaiu järv, 29 km loodesse.

When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 3.5 m, winter 1 to 3.5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come fall. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.

Spring northern pike on Koosa järv hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 1 to 3.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1 to 3.5 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. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.

When the water first warms, zander slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 3.5 m, winter 1 to 3.5 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. Keep a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait rigged through the warm months.

Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 3.5 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.

Spring puts cisco (lake herring) in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 3.5 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 3.5 m. Spring cisco (lake herring) concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A vertical flutter spoon (small) or a drop-shot micro plastic covers the summer program.

Early season burbot use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 3.5 m; winter keeps them in 1 to 3.5 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 2 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and midday. Tie on a heavy jig + cut bait and you're in the game.

Koosa järv is about 11 ft (3 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.
Koosa järv on sügavaimas kohas umbes 3 meetrit (11 jalga). Sügavused põhinevad päris mõõdistustel.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, lake whitefish, cisco (lake herring), burbot on Koosa järv.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 7 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 Koosa järv is regulated by the Keskkonnaamet (Estonian Environmental Board). Check the official Estonia regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
