37.3-acre lake in Estonia. The lake tops out around 38 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Veekogu joonistub 15 hektari suurusena, kallast 1.6 km. Nõgu on lihtne (kaldaindeks 1.2) — peaaegu kauss, seega sügavusjooned loevad rohkem kui kallas. Umbes 24% pinnast on madalam kui ~5 m — seal elab toiduahel. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 0.6 km, kõige laiemas kohas 0.3 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Tamula järv, 12.9 km põhja poole.

Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 10 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 13 m that grades good for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Suvi | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | open water | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Sügis | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (13 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talv | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Start at Secondary point. It's a point holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Suvi | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (1.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Sügis | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Secondary point (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Talv | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Secondary point (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake whitefish in 4.5 to 14 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 12 to 27 m before dropping to 7.5 to 21 m for winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 13 m of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in spring. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (13 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Suvi | 12 to 27 m | dawn | Break off the point (13 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Sügis | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Secondary point (1.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Talv | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (13 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Come spring, look for burbot tight to the bank in 7.5 to 21 m. They move out to 15 to 37 m in summer and finish the year down in 4.5 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 37 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is after dark and midday. A heavy jig + cut bait is the honest summer answer here.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (13 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Suvi | 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (37 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Sügis | 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (13 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Talv | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (13 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
