37,151-acre Pakri Bay. Sector 03 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 89 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. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Kaardil katab Pakri Bay - Sector 03 15 035 hektarit, kaldajoont 63.6 km. Kaldajoon on mõõdukalt liigestatud (indeks 1.5). Umbes 8% pinnast on madalam kui ~5 m — seal elab toiduahel.

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.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 10 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Weed flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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 | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |

| Talv | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Weed flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.

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

| Talv | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Weed flat (2 m) | Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts zander in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 4.5 to 11 m, wintering in 6 to 12 m. Summer zander concentrate at Offshore hump, a prime-rated offshore hump around 7.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Rock reef (1.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |

| Talv | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Slow blade bait |
In spring, atlantic herring run shallow here, mostly 1.5 to 7.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 4.5 to 15 m, and winter fish settle into 6 to 18 m. Rock reef is the standout, a rock pile at roughly 1.5 m, rated good for spring atlantic herring. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a herring feather rig or a small silver jig most summer days.

Early season european flounder use the shallows, holding in 1.5 to 7.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 11 m, then a winter hold in 4.5 to 15 m. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bottom jig with spinner blade and you're in the game.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: sea trout in 1 to 6 m. As the season builds they drop to 4.5 to 15 m, wintering in 1.5 to 9 m. Top water on the chart: Rock reef, a rock pile in the 1.5 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon gets it done.

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 03 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.
