14-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 9 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
På kartet dekker Storevatnet 6 hektar innenfor 2.3 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 2.6) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 78% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 0.6 km, på det bredeste 0.3 km. Vannet ligger i Fjaler kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Hovlandsvatnet, 19.3 km mot øst.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Storevatnet, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 9 m (30 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Come spring, look for brown trout tight to the bank in 1 to 7.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 9 m in summer and finish the year down in 1 to 9 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 3.5 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) 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.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8.5 m before dropping to 2.5 to 9 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 7.5 m of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.

| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 3.5 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 2.5 to 9 m. Even in summer they hold at 2.5 to 9 m; winter keeps them in 2.5 to 9 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 7.5 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.

| Vår | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |

| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Early season arctic char use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 9 m, then a winter hold in 2.5 to 9 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 7.5 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) and you're in the game.

4 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 7.5 m, is the deepest of them.

Storevatnet is about 30 ft (9 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Storevatnet er på det dypeste omtrent 9 meter (30 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char on Storevatnet. 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 24 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Storevatnet is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
