10,329-acre lake near Nälden. The lake tops out around 31 m. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Vattnet ritar ut 4 184 hektar med 74.5 km strand, uppbruten av 10 öar. Strandlinjen är kraftigt flikig (index 3.3) — vikar och uddar överallt, vilket mångdubblar den fiskbara kanten. Cirka 38% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 20 km, som bredast 6.3 km. Vattnet hör till Krokom kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Alsensjön, 9.7 km åt sydväst.

When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Sharp break (3.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Sharp break (3.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (3.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Näldsjön hold shallow, usually 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. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 2 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (3.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 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 |
Spring puts european grayling in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 4.5 m, wintering in 2.5 to 7.5 m. Fall european grayling concentrate at Sharp break, a prime-rated drop-off around 3.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around the evening and early morning. A dry fly (caddis, terrestrial) or a nymph under an indicator covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small dry fly (midge, olive), Inline spinner #0-1 |

| Vinter | 2.5 to 7.5 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (3.5 m) | Tiny jig + maggot, Small mormyshka |
Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 4.5 to 14 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 12 to 27 m, wintering in 7.5 to 21 m. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 27 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (14 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (27 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Rock reef (2.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (14 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Start shallow in spring: brown trout sit in 1 to 7.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 7.5 to 18 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 11 m. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 14 m range, prime in summer. Fish it in after dark and early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (1 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (14 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Rock reef (1.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Sharp break (3.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Early season burbot use the shallows, holding in 7.5 to 21 m. Expect a summer slide to 9.5 to 31 m, then a winter hold in 4.5 to 18 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 27 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and midday. Tie on a heavy jig + cut bait and you're in the game.

| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (14 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
