Rating depth structure for northern pike.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
4-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 3.5 m. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Vattnet ritar ut 2 hektar med 0.8 km strand. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.8) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Inget här går djupare än ~5 m: en enda stor grundzon med föda och skydd. Vattnet hör till Karlshamn kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Buasjön, 1.6 km åt sydost.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Stora Sundsjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 3 m (11 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre och öring. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 3.5 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 3.5 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage 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 | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 3.5 m; winter keeps them in 1 to 3.5 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 2.5 m that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 0.5 to 3.5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 3.5 m, and winter fish hold in 0.5 to 3.5 m. Summer brown trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 1.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.

3 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 2.5 m, is the deepest of them.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Sweden waters are set by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service) — and special regulations can apply to Stora Sundsjön specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Stora Sundsjön is about 11 ft (3 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout on Stora Sundsjön. 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 9 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.
