5,917-acre S Öresunds kustvatten. South Sweden coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 CDI-audited mixed survey/composite DTM contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official SMHI SVAR 2022 named coastal water in Skåne and southern Baltic. 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 9.5 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit 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.
S Öresunds kustvatten - South mäter 2 395 hektar bakom 29.8 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 3 öar. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.7) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Cirka 25% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 12.2 km, som bredast 2.9 km. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är V Sydkustens kustvatten - West, 6.4 km åt sydost.

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.

Early season sea trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 6 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 9.5 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 9 m. Put Rock reef first on the milk run — a rock pile near 1 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (1 m) | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 9.5 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (5 m) | Deep-running wobbler, Trolled spoon |
| Höst | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (2.5 m) | Coastal wobbler, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 9 m | midday | Rock reef (1 m) | Slow coastal spoon, Suspending wobbler |
Spring atlantic herring on S Öresunds kustvatten - South hold shallow, usually 1.5 to 7.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 9.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 9.5 m. Put Deepest basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 9.5 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a herring feather rig or a small silver jig.

| Vår | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (1 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 9.5 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (9.5 m) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9.5 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (9.5 m) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9.5 m | midday | Deepest basin (9.5 m) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
Early season garfish use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 0.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 2.5 to 9.5 m. Put Shoreline point first on the milk run — a point near 2.5 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a slim casting spoon or a surface-skipping fly and you're in the game.

| Vinter | 2.5 to 9.5 m | midday | Deepest basin (9.5 m) |
Spring puts european flounder in skinny water — 1.5 to 7.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 1.5 to 9.5 m; cold water stacks them in 2.5 to 9.5 m. Sharp break is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 5 m, rated prime for fall european flounder. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bottom jig with spinner blade covers the summer program.

| Vår | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dusk | Sharp break (5 m) | Small bucktail dragged on bottom |

| Höst | 2 to 9.5 m | dusk | Sharp break (5 m) | Compact bottom jig |

Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 2.5 to 9.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Weed flat — weed flat, 1.5 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.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |

| Vinter | 2.5 to 9.5 m | midday & dawn | Deepest basin (9.5 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 Weed flat: a weed flat around 1.5 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.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |

| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (1.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

Access data: Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management - Bathing Locations and Waters. Confirm conditions and fees locally before you launch.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Sweden waters are set by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official current Swedish fishing-rules service) — and special regulations can apply to S Öresunds kustvatten - South specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Svenska Fiskeregler and the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management immediately before every coastal trip. Area-specific closures, protected spawning areas, minimum and maximum sizes, gear restrictions and species prohibitions can change; recreational fishing for Baltic cod is prohibited during 2026. A mapped depth contour, fishing-spot marker or bathing-site access lead never establishes permission to fish, retain catch, cross private land, park, launch or navigate safely.

For sea trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
