14-acre lake near Ceredigion. The lake tops out around 29 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Llynnoedd Ieuan draws 14 acres inside 0.7 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 56% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
Come spring, look for brown trout tight to the bank in 3 to 25 ft. They move out to 9 to 29 ft in summer and finish the year down in 4 to 29 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 13 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) is the honest summer answer here.
