869-acre Stagni Gravile E Tartanelle Italy coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 CDI-audited Italian hydrographic and research-survey/composite DTM contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Italian WFD named coastal or transitional assessment water in Tyrrhenian and Ligurian Coast. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Conservation notice: the section intersects a Natura 2000 Special Protection Area (site type A). The designation is not represented as a blanket fishing ban; anglers must still check current site-management, species, seasonal and national fishing rules. 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 44 ft. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Traced from the shoreline, Stagni Gravile E Tartanelle runs 869 acres with 6.3 miles of edge. Index 1.5 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 39% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Call it 1.9 mi long by 1.2 mi wide at the broadest reach. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Foce Del Fiume Padrogianus, 2 mi west of here.
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 seabass run shallow here, mostly 3 to 25 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 8 to 44 ft. Shoreline point is the standout, a point at roughly 9 ft, rated good for fall european seabass. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a surface lure or a paddle-tail soft plastic most summer days.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (9 ft) | Paddle-tail soft plastic, Shallow minnow plug |
| Summer | 2 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (9 ft) | Surface lure, Paddle-tail soft plastic |
| Fall | 4 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (9 ft) | Slim metal lure, Minnow plug |
| Winter | 8 to 44 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 55 ft | midday | Deepest basin (43 ft) | Slow soft-plastic shad, Suspending minnow |
Early season gilthead seabream use the shallows, holding in 3 to 35 ft. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 44 ft, then a winter hold in 9 to 44 ft. Put Deepest basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 43 ft that grades prime for winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

Spring puts common dentex in skinny water — 7 to 44 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 7 to 44 ft, and winter fish hold in 10 to 44 ft. Sharp break is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 28 ft, rated prime for summer common dentex. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

When the water first warms, red mullet slide up into 4 to 44 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 3 to 44 ft, winter 9 to 44 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deepest basin: a deep basin around 43 ft that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

In spring, atlantic bonito run shallow here, mostly 7 to 44 ft. Summer keeps them at 2 to 44 ft, and they winter in 10 to 44 ft. Winter atlantic bonito concentrate at Deepest basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 43 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite.

Come spring, look for greater amberjack tight to the bank in 7 to 44 ft. Through summer count on 4 to 44 ft; the winter hold is 10 to 44 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Sharp break: a drop-off around 28 ft that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening.

Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport official ports review was reviewed, but no stable government record establishes a public fishing entrance, parking or launch for this exact mapped child. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, port and harbour rules, protected areas, 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 Italy waters are set by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry (marine recreational fishing) — and special regulations can apply to Stagni Gravile E Tartanelle specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Italy's live MASAF RecFishing registration and catch-reporting requirements, national and EU technical measures, regional ordinances, Coast Guard notices and marine-protected-area rules before every trip. Minimum sizes, daily quantities, tuna and other species reporting, gear restrictions, bathing zones, ports and individually zoned marine reserves can differ by place and season. A WFD polygon, source-audited contour, fishing spot or port listing never grants fishing, retention, shore entry, parking, launching, protected-area authorization or safe-navigation permission.

Stagni Gravile E Tartanelle is about 44 ft (13 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Official coastal monitoring from Italy national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the european seabass, gilthead seabream, common dentex, red mullet, atlantic bonito, greater amberjack, bluefish, common sole roster for Stagni Gravile E Tartanelle. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Deepest basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 43 ft of water that rates prime for gilthead seabream in winter. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For european seabass, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Stagni Gravile E Tartanelle is regulated by the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry (marine recreational fishing). Check the official Italy regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
