139.3-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 7 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 56 Hektar mit 4.3 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.6) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 75% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.8 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer Gollinsee, 3.2 km Richtung Südosten.

Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2 to 7 m game here, winter a 2 to 7 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.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| 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 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 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. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season zander use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 2 to 7 m game here, winter a 2 to 7 m one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 5 m, prime for fall. Best bite is the evening and early morning. Tie on a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait and you're in the game.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Early season common carp use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 3 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 4.5 m, then a winter hold in 2 to 7 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) |
Start shallow in spring: bleak sit in 0.5 to 3 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 0.5 to 4.5 m, and winter fish settle into 2 to 7 m. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 5 m of water that rates prime for bleak in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |

| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
In spring, common bream run shallow here, mostly 1 to 4.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 7 m, and winter fish settle into 2 to 7 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 6.5 m, rated prime for fall common bream. Time it for early morning and the evening.

Polsensee carries 6 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 6.5 m down.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Polsensee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.
