2,578-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 5 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.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 1 040 Hektar mit 28 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.5) — 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 7.6 km, an der breitesten Stelle 3.1 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Glower See, 4.8 km Richtung Norden.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Schwielochsee, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 5 m (17 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Hecht, Zander und mehr. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des Landesamts für Umwelt Brandenburg). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
Spring european perch on Schwielochsee hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 1.5 to 5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
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 | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 1.5 to 5 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Feeding flat (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring zander on Schwielochsee hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. They move out to 1.5 to 5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 5 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 2.5 m that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. The summer box starts with a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Gravel shoal (0.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Spring rainbow trout on Schwielochsee hold shallow, usually 1 to 5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1.5 to 5 m in summer, 1 to 5 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 2.5 m, prime for winter. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |

Spring common carp on Schwielochsee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. By summer they slide out to 1 to 4.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 5 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

When the water first warms, asp slide up into 1 to 5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 5 m, winter 1.5 to 5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 5 m of water and rates prime come winter. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.
