133.3-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 16 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 54 Hektar mit 4.5 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.8) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 31% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.9 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Plasterinsee, 1.6 km Richtung Westen.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 10 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (11 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1.5 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (3.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 4.5 to 11 m, then a winter hold in 6 to 12 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 11 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (3.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (11 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Spring burbot on Lutowsee hold shallow, usually 5 to 16 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 5 to 16 m in summer, 4 to 16 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 15 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (15 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommer | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (15 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Herbst | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (15 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Winter | 4 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (15 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 5.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 11 m for winter. Spring roach concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (11 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (11 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Structure-wise the chart holds 6 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 15 m.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Lutowsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Lutowsee is about 53 ft (16 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.
Lutowsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 16 Meter (53 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, burbot, roach on Lutowsee. 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 5 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in 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 Lutowsee is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
