Fishing Stora Bjurtjärnen: what the data says
55-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 29 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
The drawn water covers 55 acres wrapped in 1.5 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 77% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
