Rating depth structure for northern pike.

128-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 7 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Vannet tegner ut 52 hektar med 8.7 km strand. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 3.4) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 97% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 3.1 km, på det bredeste 0.6 km. Vannet ligger i Rakkestad kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Ertevannet, 6.4 km mot nordvest.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Skjeklesjøen, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 7 m (23 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Start shallow in spring: brown trout sit in 1 to 7 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2 to 7 m covers summer, 1 to 7 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 6 m range, prime in summer. Fish it in after dark and early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) until the fish tell you otherwise.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Deep basin (6 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |

| Vinter | 1 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Deep basin (6 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2 to 7 m game here, winter a 2 to 7 m one. Start at Back-bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.

Spring northern pike on Skjeklesjøen hold shallow, usually 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. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Secondary point (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 2 to 7 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 2 to 7 m, and winter fish hold in 2 to 7 m. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 6 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.

Start shallow in spring: common bream sit in 1 to 4.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 7 m, and winter fish settle into 2 to 7 m. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 6 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

Spring puts roach in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 5.5 m, wintering in 2 to 7 m. Spring roach concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 0.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig covers the summer program.

Skjeklesjøen is about 23 ft (7 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Skjeklesjøen er på det dypeste omtrent 7 meter (23 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, common bream, roach on Skjeklesjøen. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 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 brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Skjeklesjøen is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
