146.7-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. 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's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Auf der Karte umfasst Moderfitzsee 59 Hektar hinter 3.1 km Uferlinie. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.1) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 56% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.1 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Stolpsee, 1.6 km Richtung Südwesten.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 8.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 10 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 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) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (9.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (9.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Spring northern pike concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts zander in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 3 to 10 m; cold water stacks them in 3 to 10 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 6.5 m, rated prime for fall zander. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait covers the summer program.
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 | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (6.5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (9.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common carp in 0.5 to 3 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 4.5 m before dropping to 3 to 9 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 1 m of water that rates prime for common carp in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1.5 m) | |
| Winter | 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (9.5 m) |
When the water first warms, common bream slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 7.5 m game here, winter a 3 to 10 m one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 9.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: european eel in 1.5 to 6 m. As the season builds they drop to 2 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3 to 10 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 9.5 m range, prime in winter. Time it for after dark and the evening.
