986-acre lake near Lysvik. The lake tops out around 22 m. What you see is a modeled chart: the shoreline is real, the max depth is published, and the contours between are estimated. Plan with it; don't navigate by it. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Stor-Jangen mäter 378 hektar bakom 16.6 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 3 öar. Ett strandindex på 2.4 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 52% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 3.9 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 1.8 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Sunne kommun. Lill-Jangen ligger 3.2 km åt sydost — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Stor-Jangen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 22 m (72 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, sik och siklöja. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 10 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
| 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 | Break off the point (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for lake whitefish tight to the bank in 4.5 to 14 m. They move out to 6.5 to 22 m in summer and finish the year down in 7.5 to 21 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 19 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon is the honest summer answer here.
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 | Break off the point (10 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 6.5 to 22 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (19 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Main-lake point (5.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (19 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Come spring, look for roach tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 5.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 11 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring puts ruffe in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 3 to 9 m; cold water stacks them in 4.5 to 12 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 10 m, rated prime for fall ruffe. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A micro jig covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Creek inflow (2 m) | Tiny bottom jig |
| Sommar | 3 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 m) | Micro jig |
| Höst | 3.5 to 11 m | dusk | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny jigging spoon |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 12 m | dusk | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
In spring, vendace run shallow here, mostly 2.5 to 9 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 7.5 to 20 m before dropping to 4.5 to 15 m for winter. Summer vendace concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 19 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon most summer days.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 m) | Micro silver spoon, Tiny white jig |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 20 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (19 m) | Micro jig fished vertically, Tiny flutter spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny silver spoon, Micro mormyshka |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (19 m) | Tiny ice spoon, Tungsten mormyshka |
