Rating depth structure for northern pike.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
327-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 3.5 m. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Vattnet ritar ut 132 hektar med 7.2 km strand. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.8) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Inget här går djupare än ~5 m: en enda stor grundzon med föda och skydd. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 2.1 km, som bredast 1.3 km. Vattnet hör till Umeå kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Örefjärden - North, 9.7 km åt söder.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Östersjön, Sverige: djupkurvor från riktiga djupmätningar ner till 4 m (12 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 3.5 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 3.5 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.
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 | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Through summer count on 1 to 3.5 m; the winter hold is 1 to 3.5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 3.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 0.5 to 3.5 m. The depth story barely changes: 1 to 3.5 m through summer, 0.5 to 3.5 m in winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 3.5 m range, prime in summer. Time it for after dark and early morning. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.

| Vår | 0.5 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Deep basin (3.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |

| Vinter | 0.5 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Summer keeps them at 1 to 3.5 m, and they winter in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 3.5 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.

Spring burbot on Östersjön hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1 to 3.5 m in summer, 1 to 3.5 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 3.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.

In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 3.5 m before dropping to 1 to 3.5 m for winter. Fall roach concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 1 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.

Östersjön is about 12 ft (4 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Östersjön är som djupast cirka 4 meter (12 fot). Djupen kommer från verkliga lodningar.
Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot, roach, ruffe on Östersjön. 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 11 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For northern pike, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Östersjön is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
