43.3-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 3 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Auf der Karte umfasst Stadtsee 17 Hektar hinter 2.7 km Uferlinie, mit einer Insel im Wasser. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.9) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 0.6 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Demenzsee, 6.4 km Richtung Nordosten.

Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des LUNG Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 3 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 3 m. Fall european perch concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 2.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
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 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 3 m; cold water stacks them in 1 to 3 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1 to 3 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 to 3 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 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
When the water first warms, common bream slide up into 0.5 to 3 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 3 m, winter 1 to 3 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 2.5 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

| Winter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common carp in 0.5 to 3 m. The depth story barely changes: 0.5 to 3 m through summer, 1 to 3 m in winter. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 0.5 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening.

Spring puts crucian carp in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 0.5 to 3 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 3 m. Spring crucian carp concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 0.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: european eel in 1 to 3 m. The depth story barely changes: 0.5 to 3 m through summer, 1 to 3 m in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 2.5 m of water that rates prime for european eel in winter. Plan around after dark and the evening in the warm months.

Stadtsee also holds roach (0.5 to 3 m in summer), tench (1 to 3 m in summer), white bream (1 to 3 m in summer), zander (1 to 3 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
Structure-wise the chart holds 5 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 2.5 m.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Stadtsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Stadtsee is about 10 ft (3 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.
Stadtsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 3 Meter (10 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, common bream, common carp, crucian carp, european eel, roach, tench, white bream, zander on Stadtsee. 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.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 8 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
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.
Fishing on Stadtsee is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
