Fishing Rumsjön: what the data says
57-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 33 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
On the chart, Rumsjön draws 56 acres inside 1.4 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. About 62% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
