65-acre lake near Goingarijp. The lake tops out around 7 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Traced from the shoreline, Langstaartenpoel runs 64 acres with 1.6 miles of edge. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.4) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.5 mi with a 0.4-mi widest point. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Jentjemeer, 1 mi south of here.
