Fishing Stordammen: what the data says
845-acre lake near Österbybruk. The lake tops out around 10 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
On the chart, Stordammen draws 744 acres inside 11.1 miles of shoreline, with a single island in the mix. That shoreline is heavily fingered (development index 2.9) — bays, points and pockets everywhere, which multiplies the fishable edge. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end.
