38,083-acre Skiftet Södra. South Finland coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 official Finnish hydrographic chart/DTM assessed contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Syke VHS 2022 named coastal water in Åland Sea. 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 96 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit official hydrographic-chart depth models, so the contours are chart-derived rather than computer-modeled; no directly measured sounding coverage is claimed. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Kartalla Skiftet Södra - South kattaa 15 423 hehtaaria, rantaviivaa 204.2 km, ja saaria on 693. Rantaviiva on voimakkaasti rikkonainen (indeksi 4.6) — lahtia ja niemiä kaikkialla, mikä moninkertaistaa kalastettavan reunan. Noin 14% pinnasta on matalampaa kuin ~5 m — siellä ruokaketju elää. Päästä päähän vesi mittaa noin 18.7 km, leveimmillään 14.2 km. Lähin kartoitettu vesi on Korppoon - Houtskarin ulkosaaristoalue - Sector 05, 9.7 km itään.

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.

In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 10 m. Weed flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1.5 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | midday | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talvi | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, zander run shallow here, mostly 1 to 4.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 4.5 to 11 m, and winter fish settle into 6 to 12 m. Offshore hump is the standout, an offshore hump at roughly 7.5 m, rated prime for summer zander. Time it for the evening and early morning. You won't need more than a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait most summer days.

| Talvi | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Offshore hump (7.5 m) | Slow blade bait |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 6 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. Spring northern pike concentrate at Weed flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.

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

Spring puts atlantic herring in skinny water — 1.5 to 7.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 4.5 to 15 m, wintering in 6 to 18 m. Spring atlantic herring concentrate at Rock reef, a good-rated rock pile around 4 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A herring feather rig or a small silver jig covers the summer program.

| Kevät | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (4 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |

When the water first warms, european whitefish slide up into 3 to 12 m. By summer they slide out to 8.5 to 24 m, and by winter most fish are in 5.5 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Sharp break: a drop-off around 24 m that scores good in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a small vertical spoon or a micro jig rigged through the warm months.

No active municipality-, consortium-, or state-owned LIPAS fishing, boating, beach, swimming, canoe or motor-boat facility matched within 400 metres of this exact mapped shoreline. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, local signs, parking, safety, permits and fishing permission before entry.
Private land and private launches need the owner's permission — please ask first.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Finland waters are set by the Kalastusrajoitus.fi (official current Finnish fishing-restriction service) — and special regulations can apply to Skiftet Södra - South specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Kalastusrajoitus.fi, current protection periods and permit requirements before every Finnish coastal trip. Local no-fishing areas, river-mouth restrictions, protected species, minimum sizes, seasonal closures, gear rules, the fisheries-management fee and water-owner permissions may apply. A mapped hydrographic contour, fishing-spot marker or nearby LIPAS public facility is planning context only and never grants fishing, retention, shoreline entry, parking, launching or safe-navigation permission.

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.
