Rating depth structure for northern pike.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
199-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 5 m. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
På kartan täcker Kroksjön 80 hektar innanför 5.6 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.8) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Räkna med 1.6 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 1.1 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Ljusdal kommun. Stensjön ligger 1.6 km åt öster — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Kroksjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 5 m (16 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. Midsummer fish sit out in 1.5 to 5 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 1 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.
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 | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 1.5 to 5 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 5 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 1 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 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) |
| Höst | 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 |
| Vinter | 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 |
When the water first warms, brown trout slide up into 0.5 to 5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1.5 to 5 m, winter 0.5 to 5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 2 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and early morning. Keep a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) rigged through the warm months.

| Vår | 0.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring lake whitefish on Kroksjön hold shallow, usually 1.5 to 5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1.5 to 5 m in summer, 1.5 to 5 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 4.5 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 1.5 to 5 m. Summer keeps them at 1.5 to 5 m, and they winter in 1 to 5 m. Spring burbot concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 4.5 m. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Kroksjön is about 16 ft (5 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.

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.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every 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.
