59-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 100 m. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Vannet tegner ut 24 hektar med 5.8 km strand. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 3.3) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 19% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 1.8 km, på det bredeste 0.5 km. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Lygne, 16.1 km mot sørøst.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Lygnevatn, Norge: omtrentlige dybdekoter ned til 100 m (327 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.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 1 to 7.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 7.5 to 18 m, wintering in 1.5 to 11 m. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 45 m range, good in summer. Time it for after dark and early morning. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (45 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (45 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
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 feeding flat holding about 2 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.
| 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 | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (85 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (85 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 feeding flat near 2 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.
| 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 |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 4.5 to 14 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 12 to 27 m before dropping to 7.5 to 21 m for winter. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a good-rated deep basin around 85 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (85 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | open water | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (85 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, arctic char run shallow here, mostly 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 6 to 18 m before dropping to 3 to 12 m for winter. Spring arctic char concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a good-rated feeding flat around 2 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) most summer days.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |
| Sommer | 6 to 18 m | dawn | Deep basin (85 m) | Jigging spoon vertical, Tube jig (smelt) |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | midday & dusk | open water | Casting spoon (orange/gold), Beadhead streamer |
| Vinter | 3 to 12 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (85 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |

Lygnevatn is about 327 ft (100 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.
Lygnevatn er på det dypeste omtrent 100 meter (327 fot). Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje — bruk det som veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char on Lygnevatn. 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 feeding flat in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by 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 Lygnevatn 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.
