7-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 18 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Vannet tegner ut 3 hektar med 1 km strand. Strandlinjen er moderat strukturert (indeks 1.7). Omtrent 32% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 0.5 km. Vannet ligger i Nittedal kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Lomtjern, 0 km mot nordvest.

Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Start shallow in spring: brown trout sit in 1 to 7.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 5.5 to 18 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 11 m. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 6.5 m of water that rates prime for brown trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and early morning. Throw a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) until the fish tell you otherwise.
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 | Main-lake point (2 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 5.5 to 18 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3.5 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Lusevasan hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 2 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 4.5 to 14 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 5.5 to 18 m; cold water stacks them in 5.5 to 18 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 15 m, rated prime for summer lake whitefish. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.

| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 5.5 to 18 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (15 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 5.5 to 18 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (15 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring puts arctic char in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 5.5 to 18 m; cold water stacks them in 3 to 12 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 15 m, rated prime for summer arctic char. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) covers the summer program.

When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 0.5 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 3 to 9 m game here, winter a 1 to 6 m one. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 6.5 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.

Structure-wise the chart holds 4 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 15 m.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Norway waters are set by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules) — and special regulations can apply to Lusevasan specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Lusevasan is about 59 ft (18 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Lusevasan er på det dypeste omtrent 18 meter (59 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char, brook trout on Lusevasan. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Lusevasan is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
