720-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 8.5 m. The depth chart comes from SMHI 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.
På kartan täcker Stor-Uttersjön 291 hektar innanför 14 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är kraftigt flikig (index 2.3) — vikar och uddar överallt, vilket mångdubblar den fiskbara kanten. Cirka 96% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 4.5 km, som bredast 1.8 km. Vattnet hör till Örnsköldsvik kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Isnotrödvattnet, 1.6 km åt norr.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Stor-Uttersjön, Sverige: djupkurvor från riktiga djupmätningar ner till 9 m (28 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.
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 3 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Break off the point (3 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring european perch on Stor-Uttersjön hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 2.5 to 8.5 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 8 m, prime for fall. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
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 | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (8 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 8.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 1 to 7.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 1 to 8.5 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 3 m, rated prime for summer brown trout. Time it for after dark and early morning. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (3 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 8.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 8.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (3 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 2.5 to 8.5 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2.5 to 8.5 m covers summer, 2.5 to 8.5 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 8 m range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.

When the water first warms, burbot slide up into 2.5 to 8.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2.5 to 8.5 m, winter 2 to 8.5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 8 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.

Stor-Uttersjön is about 28 ft (9 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Stor-Uttersjön. 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 27 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by 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.
Fishing on Stor-Uttersjön is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
