10,916-acre Pakri Bay. Sector 02 Estonia coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 official Estonian E50M hydrographic DTM / traceable CDI assessed contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Estonian WFD named coastal assessment water in West Estonian Archipelago. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 59 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Veekogu joonistub 4 417 hektari suurusena, kallast 44.4 km. Kaldajoon on mõõdukalt liigestatud (indeks 1.9). Umbes 6% pinnast on madalam kui ~5 m — seal elab toiduahel. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 15.9 km, kõige laiemas kohas 7.4 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Pakri Bay - Sector 06, 8 km lõunasse.

Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

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 Weed 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.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Suvi | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Sügis | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talv | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | 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 Weed flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 2 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

| Sügis | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Talv | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Weed flat (2 m) | 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 6 to 12 m. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Suvi | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Sügis | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | open water | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Talv | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Slow blade bait |
When the water first warms, atlantic herring slide up into 1.5 to 7.5 m. By summer they slide out to 4.5 to 15 m, and by winter most fish are in 6 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Weed flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores good in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a herring feather rig or a small silver jig rigged through the warm months.

| Sügis | 3 to 12 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Talv | 6 to 18 m | midday | open water | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european flounder in 1.5 to 7.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2 to 11 m, wintering in 4.5 to 15 m. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a bottom jig with spinner blade gets it done.

| Talv | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | open water | Small bottom jig |
When the water first warms, sea trout slide up into 1 to 6 m. Summer is a 4.5 to 15 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 9 m one. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon rigged through the warm months.

Pakri Bay - Sector 02 also holds european whitefish (8.5 to 24 m in summer), atlantic salmon (6 to 21 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
8 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deepest basin, around 58 m, is the deepest of them.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Estonia waters are set by the Keskkonnaamet (Estonian Environmental Board coastal fishing rules) — and special regulations can apply to Pakri Bay - Sector 02 specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Before every Estonian coastal trip, check the current Keskkonnaamet fishing-right requirements, protected-species rules, seasonal closures, river-mouth restrictions, minimum sizes, gear limits and any area-specific conservation measures. A mapped contour, fishing-spot marker, species roster or nearby harbour is planning context only. It never grants fishing or retention rights, shoreline entry, parking, launching access, permission to enter a port, or safe-navigation clearance; local signs, land ownership, weather, ice and vessel traffic still control.

Pakri Bay - Sector 02 is about 192 ft (59 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Official coastal monitoring from Estonia national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the european perch, northern pike, zander, atlantic herring, european flounder, sea trout, european whitefish, atlantic salmon roster for Pakri Bay - Sector 02. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Weed flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 7 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each 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 Pakri Bay - Sector 02 is regulated by the Keskkonnaamet (Estonian Environmental Board coastal fishing rules). Check the official Estonia regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
