145.1-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 18 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 58 Hektar mit 3.5 km Ufer. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.3) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 23% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.4 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.6 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer Glubigsee, 1.6 km Richtung Norden.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 10 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (12 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1.5 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 4.5 to 11 m, then a winter hold in 6 to 12 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 12 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (12 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (12 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (12 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
When the water first warms, common carp slide up into 0.5 to 3 m. Summer is a 1 to 4.5 m game here, winter a 3 to 9 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | |
| Winter | 3 to 9 m | midday | open water |
Spring puts bleak in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 0.5 to 4.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3 to 10 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1.5 m, rated prime for spring bleak. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | open water | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (12 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 7.5 m before dropping to 5.5 to 14 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 1.5 m of water that rates prime for common bream in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | open water | |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (12 m) | |
| Winter | 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Break off the point (12 m) |
Springsee also holds european eel (2 to 8.5 m in summer), roach (1 to 5.5 m in summer), rudd (0.5 to 3.5 m in summer), ruffe (3 to 9 m in summer), tench (1 to 3.5 m in summer), white bream (2 to 6 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
Springsee carries 6 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 18 m down.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Springsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.
