344-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 26 m. The contours come from a model of the real basin shape and its known max depth. Read them as probabilities, not soundings, and keep them out of navigation decisions. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
På kartan täcker Stömnesjön 139 hektar innanför 10.8 km strandlinje. Ett strandindex på 2.6 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 58% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 2.4 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 1.9 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Arvika kommun. Hällsjön ligger 1.6 km åt nordväst — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Stömnesjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 26 m (85 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Spring northern pike concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 8.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 10 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season brown trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 7.5 m. Summer is a 7.5 to 18 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 11 m one. The chart's best answer is Main-lake point — point, 6.5 m, prime for spring. Best bite is after dark and early morning. Tie on a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Main-lake point (6.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (6.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | open water | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
When the water first warms, lake whitefish slide up into 4.5 to 14 m. By summer they slide out to 8 to 26 m, and by winter most fish are in 7.5 to 21 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 22 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon rigged through the warm months.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 8 to 26 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (22 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Main-lake point (6.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (22 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Start shallow in spring: burbot sit in 7.5 to 21 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 8 to 26 m, and winter fish settle into 4.5 to 18 m. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 22 m of water that rates prime for burbot in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and midday. Throw a heavy jig + cut bait until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (22 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |

| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (22 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Early season european smelt use the shallows, holding in 1 to 7.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 7.5 to 21 m, then a winter hold in 6 to 20 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 22 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a tiny vertical spoon or a micro jig and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | night & dusk | open water | Micro silver jig, Tiny feather rig |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 21 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (22 m) | Tiny vertical spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 4.5 to 17 m | dusk | Deep basin (22 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Vinter | 6 to 20 m | dusk | Deep basin (22 m) | Tiny glow jig, Micro ice spoon |

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot, european smelt, roach, ruffe on Stömnesjön. 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.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For northern pike, 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.
