1,250-acre lake near Gäddede. The lake tops out around 25 m. The depth picture is modeled, anchored to the true shoreline and the water's published max depth — a scouting aid, never a chart to run a boat by. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Leipikvattnet mäter 537 hektar bakom 23.8 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 6 öar. Ett strandindex på 2.9 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 44% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 4.3 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 3.2 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Strömsund kommun. Ankarvattnet ligger 8 km åt söder — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Leipikvattnet, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 25 m (81 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för röding och öring. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Spring arctic char on Leipikvattnet hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 6 to 18 m, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 12 m. The chart's best answer is Gaavesjohke inflow — inflow / creek mouth, 2.5 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt).
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | midday & dawn | Gaavesjohke inflow (2.5 m) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |
| Sommar | 6 to 18 m | dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Jigging spoon vertical, Tube jig (smelt) |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | midday & dusk | Gaavesjohke inflow (2.5 m) | Casting spoon (orange/gold), Beadhead streamer |
| Vinter | 3 to 12 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |
When the water first warms, brown trout slide up into 1 to 7.5 m. Summer is a 7.5 to 18 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 11 m one. Start at Gaavesjohke inflow. It's an inflow / creek mouth holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run after dark and early morning. Keep a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Gaavesjohke inflow (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Gaavesjohke inflow (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Gaavesjohke inflow (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
