17-acre lake in Finland. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
The drawn water covers 17 acres wrapped in 0.8 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. 69% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 3 to 12 ft. They move out to 6 to 20 ft in summer and finish the year down in 6 to 20 ft.

A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
