Rating depth structure for northern pike.

22-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 6 m. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
På kartan täcker Mörttjärnet 9 hektar innanför 1.3 km strandlinje. Med index 1.1 är formen nära cirkelrund: läs botten, inte strandlinjen. Ungefär 81% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 0.5 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 0.3 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Arvika kommun. Gotjärnet ligger 1.6 km åt nordväst — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Mörttjärnet, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 6 m (20 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 0.5 to 2.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 2 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 2 to 6 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) 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.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, brown trout slide up into 0.5 to 6 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2 to 6 m, winter 1 to 6 m. Start at Shoreline break. It's a drop-off holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run after dark and early morning. Keep a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) rigged through the warm months.

| Vår | 0.5 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring lake whitefish on Mörttjärnet hold shallow, usually 2 to 6 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 2 to 6 m in summer, 2 to 6 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 5 m, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 1.5 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 2 to 6 m. Summer keeps them at 2 to 6 m, and they winter in 1.5 to 6 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 5 m, rated prime for spring burbot. Time it for after dark and midday. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Mörttjärnet is about 20 ft (6 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.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Mörttjärnet. 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 3 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For northern pike, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
