761-acre lake near Nybro. The lake tops out around 12 m. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Vattnet ritar ut 305 hektar med 19.5 km strand, uppbruten av 2 öar. Strandlinjen är kraftigt flikig (index 3.1) — vikar och uddar överallt, vilket mångdubblar den fiskbara kanten. Cirka 69% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 3.5 km, som bredast 2.1 km. Vattnet hör till Nybro kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Lille Hindsjön, 4.8 km åt norr.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Store Hindsjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 12 m (38 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda och siklöja. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Store Hindsjön hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts roach in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 5.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 11 m. Spring roach concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
In spring, rudd run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 0.5 to 3.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 9 m for winter. Spring rudd concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon most summer days.

| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny dry fly |

Early season ruffe use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 3 to 9 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 12 m one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 10 m, prime for fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a micro jig and you're in the game.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
