95.6-acre river in Brandenburg, Germany. The river tops out around 4.5 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 Sacrow-Paretzer Kanal 38 Hektar hinter 10.5 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 4.8) — Buchten und Landzungen überall, was die befischbare Kante vervielfacht. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 4.8 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Fahrländer See, 1.6 km Richtung Osten.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 4.5 m, wintering in 1 to 4.5 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 | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts zander in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 4.5 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 4.5 m. Winter zander concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 2.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait 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 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Secondary point (1 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
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 1 to 4.5 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.

| 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 chart-limited; documented 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Winter | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) |
6 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 2.5 m, is the deepest of them.

Anglers target european perch, zander, common carp on Sacrow-Paretzer Kanal.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 4 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
