15-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 18 m. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Krokstjärnet mäter 6 hektar bakom 1.1 km strandlinje. Bassängen är enkel (strandindex 1.2) — nästan en skål, så djupkurvorna betyder mer än stranden. Cirka 21% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 0.5 km. Vattnet hör till Eda kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Abborrtjärnet, 1.6 km åt väster.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Krokstjärnet, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 18 m (59 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.
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 10 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 2 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shoreline break (8 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Shoreline break (8 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (8 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 1 to 7.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 5.5 to 18 m, wintering in 1.5 to 11 m. Summer brown trout concentrate at Shoreline break, a prime-rated drop-off around 8 m. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.
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 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (8 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 5.5 to 18 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Shoreline break (8 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Shoreline break (8 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Shoreline break (8 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake whitefish in 4.5 to 14 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 5.5 to 18 m before dropping to 5.5 to 18 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 15 m of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in summer. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (8 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |

| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Shoreline break (8 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 5.5 to 18 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (15 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Come spring, look for burbot tight to the bank in 5.5 to 18 m. Through summer count on 5.5 to 18 m; the winter hold is 4.5 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 15 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is after dark and midday. A heavy jig + cut bait is the honest summer answer here.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Krokstjärnet. 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 6 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The interactive chart above rates every 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.
