6.6-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 10 m. The depth chart comes from published agency 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 2,8 Hektar mit 0.6 km Ufer. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 59% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer See, 1.6 km Richtung Nordosten.

Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shoreline break (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (9 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (9 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
3 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 9 m, is the deepest of them.
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 Pinnower See 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.
