202-acre lake in Finland. The lake tops out around 20 m. The depth chart comes from Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Vesi piirtyy 81 hehtaarin laajuisena, rantaa 6.1 km. Rantaviiva on kohtalaisen rikkonainen (indeksi 1.9). Noin 29% pinnasta on matalampaa kuin ~5 m — siellä ruokaketju elää. Päästä päähän vesi mittaa noin 2.4 km, leveimmillään 0.8 km. Vesi sijaitsee alueella Lounais-Pirkanmaan seutukunta. Lähin kartoitettu vesi on Tupurlajärvi, 8 km itään.

Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 0.5 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talvi | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 0.5 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Syksy | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Talvi | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season zander use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 4.5 to 11 m game here, winter a 6 to 12 m one. The chart's best answer is Main-lake point — point, 2 m, prime for spring. Best bite is the evening and early morning. Tie on a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait and you're in the game.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Kesä | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Syksy | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Main-lake point (2 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Talvi | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake whitefish in 4.5 to 14 m. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 20 m, wintering in 6 to 20 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 20 m range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Kesä | 6 to 20 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (20 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Syksy | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Talvi | 6 to 20 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (20 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Come spring, look for burbot tight to the bank in 6 to 20 m. Through summer count on 6 to 20 m; the winter hold is 4.5 to 18 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 20 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. A heavy jig + cut bait 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.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 6 to 20 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Kesä | 6 to 20 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (20 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Syksy | 6 to 20 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Talvi | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Count 5 structure marks on this chart. The deepest, Deep basin, sits near 20 m.

Mätikkö is about 66 ft (20 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Mätikkö on syvimmillään noin 20 metriä (66 jalkaa). Syvyydet perustuvat todellisiin luotauksiin.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, lake whitefish, burbot on Mätikkö. 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 2 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
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 Mätikkö is regulated by the Kalastusrajoitus.fi (official Finnish restriction service). Check the official Finland regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
