8611-acre Polish Bornholm Basin Coastal Waters. Sector 02 Poland coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 official Polish POL200M/POL500M 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 Polish WFD named coastal or transitional assessment water in Polish Baltic Coast. 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 55 ft. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit official hydrographic-chart depth models, so the contours are chart-derived rather than computer-modeled; no directly measured sounding coverage is claimed. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Drawn out, this is 8,611 acres of water rimmed by 25.7 miles of bank. Index 2 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. 30% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 10.8 mi with a 2-mi widest point. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Polish Bornholm Basin Coastal Waters - Sector 01, 11 mi southwest of here.
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.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: sea trout in 3 to 20 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 15 to 50 ft before dropping to 5 to 30 ft for winter. The spot to know is Rock reef, a rock pile in about 5 ft of water that rates prime for sea trout in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (5 ft) | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |
| Summer | 15 to 50 ft | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Deep-running wobbler, Trolled spoon |
| Fall | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (13 ft) | Coastal wobbler, Casting spoon |
| Winter | 5 to 30 ft | midday | Rock reef (5 ft) | Slow coastal spoon, Suspending wobbler |
In spring, atlantic herring run shallow here, mostly 5 to 25 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 15 to 50 ft before dropping to 17 to 55 ft for winter. Winter atlantic herring concentrate at Deepest basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 53 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a herring feather rig or a small silver jig most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (5 ft) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Summer | 15 to 50 ft | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (53 ft) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Fall | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Winter | 17 to 55 ft | midday | Deepest basin (53 ft) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
Early season european flounder use the shallows, holding in 5 to 25 ft. Summer is a 6 to 35 ft game here, winter a 15 to 50 ft one. The chart's best answer is Sharp break — drop-off, 20 ft, prime for fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bottom jig with spinner blade and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 25 ft | dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Small bucktail dragged on bottom |
| Summer | 6 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Bottom jig with spinner blade |
| Fall | 8 to 40 ft | dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Compact bottom jig |
| Winter | 15 to 50 ft | midday | Sharp break (20 ft) | Small bottom jig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: garfish in 1 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 2 to 20 ft before dropping to 17 to 55 ft for winter. The spot to know is Shoreline point, a point in about 13 ft of water that rates prime for garfish in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a slim casting spoon or a surface-skipping fly gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 15 ft | dawn & midday | Shoreline point (13 ft) | Slim silver spoon, Small inline spinner |
| Summer | 2 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (13 ft) | Slim casting spoon, Surface-skipping fly |
| Fall | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Weighted slim spoon, Small silver jig |
| Winter | 17 to 55 ft | midday | Deepest basin (53 ft) |
Come spring, look for atlantic salmon tight to the bank in 5 to 30 ft. Expect a summer slide to 16 to 55 ft, then a winter hold in 10 to 45 ft. Start at Deepest basin. It's a deep basin holding about 53 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A trolling spoon or a flasher + fly is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Slim coastal spoon, Trolling spoon |
| Summer | 16 to 55 ft | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (53 ft) | Trolling spoon, Flasher + fly |
| Fall | 4 to 28 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (13 ft) | Casting spoon, Large streamer |
| Winter | 10 to 45 ft | midday | Sharp break (20 ft) | Slow coastal spoon |
Early season european smelt use the shallows, holding in 3 to 25 ft. Expect a summer slide to 17 to 55 ft, then a winter hold in 17 to 55 ft. Put Deepest basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 53 ft that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a tiny vertical spoon or a micro jig and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 25 ft | night & dusk | Sharp break (20 ft) | Micro silver jig, Tiny feather rig |
| Summer | 17 to 55 ft | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (53 ft) | Tiny vertical spoon, Micro jig |
| Fall | 15 to 55 ft | dusk | Deepest basin (53 ft) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 17 to 55 ft | dusk | Deepest basin (53 ft) | Tiny glow jig, Micro ice spoon |

Polish maritime administration ports and harbours review was reviewed, but no stable government record establishes a public fishing entrance, parking or launch for this exact mapped child. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, port and harbour rules, protected areas, local signs, parking, safety, permits and fishing permission before entry.
Private land and private launches need the owner's permission — please ask first.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Poland waters are set by the Polish Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (current recreational marine-fishing rules) — and special regulations can apply to Polish Bornholm Basin Coastal Waters - Sector 02 specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Poland's live national and EU Baltic recreational-fishing rules before every trip. Fees, permitted methods, protected sizes and periods, species prohibitions, harbour spinning closures, marine protected areas and local port or shoreline directions can change. Directed recreational retention of cod, eel and some salmon is restricted or prohibited under the cited framework; never infer an open fishery from a regional occurrence roster. An official DTM contour, fishing spot or nearby port reference is planning context only and never grants fishing, retention, access, parking, launching, port-entry or safe-navigation permission.
