318-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 8 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
På kartet dekker Nordre Økteren 128 hektar innenfor 9.3 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 2.3) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 93% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 2.3 km, på det bredeste 1.3 km. Vannet ligger i Nore og Uvdal kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Søre Økteren, 1.6 km mot sørvest.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Nordre Økteren, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 8 m (27 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Spring brown trout on Nordre Økteren hold shallow, usually 1 to 7.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8 m in summer and finish the year down in 1 to 8 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 8 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run after dark and early morning. The summer box starts with a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night).
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (1 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (1 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8 m before dropping to 2.5 to 8 m for winter. Fall european perch concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 8 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.

| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (8 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 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 | Shallow feeding flat (6 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for lake whitefish tight to the bank in 2.5 to 8 m. Through summer count on 2.5 to 8 m; the winter hold is 2.5 to 8 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 8 m of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon is the honest summer answer here.

Nordre Økteren is about 27 ft (8 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.
Nordre Økteren er på det dypeste omtrent 8 meter (27 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish on Nordre Økteren. 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.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 26 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and 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 Nordre Økteren is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
