11-acre river near Putten. The river tops out around 6 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The chart traces 0 miles of shoreline here — 21 islands included. The shoreline is moderately structured (index NaN) — enough points and pockets to pattern. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: De Wiel, 5 mi west of here.

Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
