Fishing Lehmijärvi: what the data says
159-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 follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Lehmijärvi maps at 158 acres behind 2.9 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.7) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 47% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
