Fishing Mörttjärnet: what the data says
34-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 59 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Traced from the shoreline, Mörttjärnet runs 34 acres with 1.2 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Roughly 41% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives.
