Rating depth structure for northern pike.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
12-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 10 m. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
På kartan täcker Piperråtjärnen 5 hektar innanför 1.1 km strandlinje. Bassängen är enkel (strandindex 1.4) — nästan en skål, så djupkurvorna betyder mer än stranden. Cirka 37% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 0.5 km. Vattnet hör till Örnsköldsvik kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Valvtjärnen, 4.8 km åt öster.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Piperråtjärnen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 10 m (33 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Main-lake point — point, 2.5 m, prime for fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 8.5 m that scores prime in fall. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 1 to 7.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 3 to 10 m before dropping to 1.5 to 10 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 8.5 m of water that rates prime for brown trout in summer. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 3 to 10 m. Summer keeps them at 3 to 10 m, and they winter in 3 to 10 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 8.5 m, rated prime for summer lake whitefish. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.

| Vinter | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring burbot on Piperråtjärnen hold shallow, usually 3 to 10 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 3 to 10 m in summer, 2.5 to 10 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 8.5 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Piperråtjärnen. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 28 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. 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.
