655-acre lake near Valdshult. The lake tops out around 22 m. The depth picture is modeled, anchored to the true shoreline and the water's published max depth — a scouting aid, never a chart to run a boat by. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Kartan följer 22 km strandlinje här, uppbruten av 7 öar. Ett strandindex på 4.4 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 67% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 3.4 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 1.4 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Gnosjö kommun. Mellansjön ligger 3.2 km åt sydost — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Norra Vallsjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 22 m (73 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda, sik med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 10 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.
| 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 | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 6 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. 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 (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 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 lake whitefish on Norra Vallsjön hold shallow, usually 4.5 to 14 m. They move out to 6.5 to 22 m in summer and finish the year down in 7.5 to 21 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 19 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.
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 | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 6.5 to 22 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (19 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Main-lake point (5.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (19 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring roach on Norra Vallsjön hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 5.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 11 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 tiny spoon or a micro jig.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (5.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | open water | Tungsten mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: vendace in 2.5 to 9 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 7.5 to 20 m before dropping to 4.5 to 15 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 19 m of water that rates prime for vendace in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Micro silver spoon, Tiny white jig |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 20 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (19 m) | Micro jig fished vertically, Tiny flutter spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Tiny silver spoon, Micro mormyshka |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (19 m) | Tiny ice spoon, Tungsten mormyshka |
Structure-wise the chart holds 5 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 19 m.
