1,474-acre Peenestrom Germany saltwater fishing map with official BSH 50 m seabed bathymetry, source-qualified fishing spots, official German fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public shore-use context and current-rule links. Peenestrom's river-like brackish corridor, with constricted channels, reed margins and shallow basins. The water tops out around 7 m. The depth chart comes from Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (BSH) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 597 Hektar mit 16.3 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.9) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 96% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 5.5 km, an der breitesten Stelle 2.4 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Kiessee bei Sauzin, 1.6 km Richtung Nordosten.

Regional occurrence supports search targets, not equal abundance, a child-specific catch rate, retention permission or a promised catch. Baltic cod is intentionally excluded because targeted recreational fishing is prohibited in 2026; live state and federal rules 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 northern pike on Peenestrom hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down 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. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Weed flat (2 m) | Large jigging spoon |
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2 to 7 m game here, winter a 2 to 7 m one. Start at Weed flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2 to 7 m | dawn | Deepest basin (7 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2 to 7 m | midday | Deepest basin (7 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m | midday & dawn | Deepest basin (7 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, zander slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 2 to 7 m game here, winter a 2 to 7 m one. Start at Sharp break. It's a drop-off holding about 4.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. Keep a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Gravel shoal (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 2 to 7 m | dusk & dawn | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 2 to 7 m | dusk & night | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m | dusk & dawn | Deepest basin (7 m) | Slow blade bait |
Start shallow in spring: european flounder sit in 1.5 to 7 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 1 to 7 m covers summer, 2 to 7 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Feeding flat, a feeding flat in the 2.5 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bottom jig with spinner blade until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 7 m | dusk | Feeding flat (2.5 m) | Small bucktail dragged on bottom |
| Sommer | 1 to 7 m | dawn & dusk | Feeding flat (2.5 m) | Bottom jig with spinner blade |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 7 m | dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Compact bottom jig |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m | midday | Deepest basin (7 m) | Small bottom jig |
Come spring, look for atlantic herring tight to the bank in 1.5 to 7 m. Through summer count on 2 to 7 m; the winter hold is 2 to 7 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deepest basin: a deep basin around 7 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A herring feather rig or a small silver jig is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 7 m | dawn & dusk | Official-grid current seam (2.5 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Sommer | 2 to 7 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (7 m) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Herbst | 2 to 7 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (7 m) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m | midday | Deepest basin (7 m) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
Come spring, look for garfish tight to the bank in 0.5 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 0.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 2 to 7 m. Start at Shoreline point. It's a point holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A slim casting spoon or a surface-skipping fly is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & midday | Shoreline point (1.5 m) | Slim silver spoon, Small inline spinner |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (1.5 m) | Slim casting spoon, Surface-skipping fly |
| Herbst | 2 to 7 m | dawn & dusk | Official-grid current seam (2.5 m) | Weighted slim spoon, Small silver jig |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m | midday | Deepest basin (7 m) |
Peenestrom also holds sea trout (2 to 7 m in summer), european smelt (2 to 7 m in summer), european plaice (1 to 7 m in summer), common sole (0.5 to 7 m in summer), thick-lipped grey mullet (0.5 to 5.5 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
Structure-wise the chart holds 8 features, led in depth by Deepest basin at roughly 7 m.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Peenestrom specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Peenestrom is about 23 ft (7 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (BSH) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Peenestrom ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 7 Meter (23 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Official coastal monitoring from LALLF coastal angling guidance and German marine monitoring informs the northern pike, european perch, zander, european flounder, atlantic herring, garfish, sea trout, european smelt, european plaice, common sole, thick-lipped grey mullet roster for Peenestrom. 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 6 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every 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 Peenestrom is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
