279-acre lake in Finland. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
On the chart, Kyrksjön Kirkkojärvi draws 278 acres inside 5.2 miles of shoreline. With a shoreline index of 2.2, this water is all arms and coves — edge habitat well beyond its acreage. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 3 to 12 ft. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 20 ft, wintering in 6 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 3-ft range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Summer | 6 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Fall | 6 to 20 ft | midday | Deep basin (19 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 6 to 20 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 2 to 8 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 8 to 20 ft; cold water stacks them in 5 to 15 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 3-ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 10-ft range, prime in fall. Time it for the evening and early morning. Summer baits: a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 4 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |

Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 6 to 20 ft. Even in summer they hold at 6 to 20 ft; winter keeps them in 6 to 20 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 19 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 6 to 20 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
