3-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 10 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
På kartet dekker Lomtjern 1 hektar innenfor 0.5 km strandlinje. Bassenget er enkelt (strandindeks 1.3) — nesten en bolle, så dybdekurvene betyr mer enn stranden. Omtrent 76% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Vannet ligger i Nittedal kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Bleiktjern, 0 km mot nordøst.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Lomtjern, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 10 m (33 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Come spring, look for brown trout tight to the bank in 1 to 7.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 3 to 10 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 10 m. Start at Shoreline break. It's a drop-off holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) is the honest summer answer here.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 10 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 6.5 m range, prime in fall. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 0.5 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 3 to 10 m. Even in summer they hold at 3 to 10 m; winter keeps them in 3 to 10 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 6.5 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Early season arctic char use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 3 to 10 m game here, winter a 2.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 6.5 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) and you're in the game.

| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |

| Vinter | 2.5 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 12 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |
In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 4.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 3 to 9 m, and winter fish settle into 1 to 6 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 6.5 m, rated prime for summer brook trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.
