Rating depth structure for northern pike.

25-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 7.5 m. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Vattnet ritar ut 10 hektar med 1.6 km strand. Med index 1.4 är formen nära cirkelrund: läs botten, inte strandlinjen. Ungefär 80% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 0.6 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 0.3 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Degerfors kommun. Sävsjön ligger 1.6 km åt sydost — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Kroksjön, Sverige: djupkurvor från riktiga djupmätningar ner till 8 m (25 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 0.5 to 2.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 2.5 m range, prime in fall. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 2 to 7.5 m; cold water stacks them in 2.5 to 7.5 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 7 m range, prime in fall. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (7 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 2.5 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, brown trout slide up into 1 to 7.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2.5 to 7.5 m, winter 1 to 7.5 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run after dark and early morning. Keep a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) rigged through the warm months.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring lake whitefish on Kroksjön hold shallow, usually 2.5 to 7.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 2.5 to 7.5 m in summer, 2.5 to 7.5 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 7 m, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

| Vår | 2.5 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (7 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |

| Vinter | 2.5 to 7.5 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 2.5 to 7.5 m. Summer keeps them at 2.5 to 7.5 m, and they winter in 2 to 7.5 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 7 m, rated prime for spring burbot. Time it for after dark and midday. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Kroksjön is about 25 ft (8 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Kroksjön är som djupast cirka 8 meter (25 fot). Djupen kommer från verkliga lodningar.
Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Kroksjön. 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 23 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For northern pike, 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 Kroksjön is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
