605.4-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 6 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Auf der Karte umfasst Rangsdorfer See 244 Hektar hinter 10.9 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 2) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 3.2 km, an der breitesten Stelle 1.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Mellensee b. Mellensee, 12.9 km Richtung Süden.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2 to 6 m, wintering in 2 to 6 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
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 6 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| 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 | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 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 |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common carp in 0.5 to 3 m. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 4.5 m, wintering in 2 to 6 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening.
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 | 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 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) |
Come spring, look for bleak tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 0.5 to 4.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2 to 6 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 1.5 m that scores prime in fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon is the honest summer answer here.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
When the water first warms, common bream slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 2 to 6 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 4.5 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

Spring puts crucian carp in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 0.5 to 4.5 m, wintering in 2 to 6 m. Spring crucian carp concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.
