282-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 11 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 114 Hektar mit 10.8 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.8) — Buchten und Landzungen überall, was die befischbare Kante vervielfacht. Etwa 47% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 4.7 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Templiner See b. Templin, 3.2 km Richtung Südosten.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 10 m. Start at Back-bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (11 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 4.5 to 11 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 11 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 5 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (3 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (11 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
When the water first warms, common carp slide up into 0.5 to 3 m. Summer is a 1 to 4.5 m game here, winter a 3 to 9 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 0.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (2 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (2 m) | |
| Winter | 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) |
Spring burbot on Netzowsee hold shallow, usually 3.5 to 11 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 3.5 to 11 m in summer, 2.5 to 11 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 11 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (11 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommer | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (11 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (11 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Winter | 2.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (11 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 7.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 11 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 11 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

Netzowsee is about 37 ft (11 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, common carp, burbot, common bream, european eel, roach, rudd, tench, white bream on Netzowsee.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 7 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
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 Netzowsee is regulated by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
