23-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 40 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Lill-Burtjärnen maps at 23 acres behind 1 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.5) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 33% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.

When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 2 to 8 ft. Summer is a 8 to 20 ft game here, winter a 5 to 15 ft one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 5 ft of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (5 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Summer | 8 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (18 ft) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Fall | 6 to 18 ft | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (18 ft) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |

Spring european perch on Lill-Burtjärnen hold shallow, usually 3 to 12 ft. They move out to 8 to 28 ft in summer and finish the year down in 12 to 33 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 5 ft that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (5 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |

In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 3 to 25 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 12 to 40 ft before dropping to 5 to 35 ft for winter. Summer brown trout concentrate at Shoreline break, a prime-rated drop-off around 18 ft. Fish it in after dark and early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (18 ft) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |

Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 12 to 40 ft that time of year. The depth story barely changes: 12 to 40 ft through summer, 12 to 40 ft in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 34 ft of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 12 to 40 ft | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (18 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |

When the water first warms, burbot slide up into 12 to 40 ft. The depth story barely changes: 12 to 40 ft through summer, 10 to 40 ft in winter. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 34 ft that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.
