71-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 2 m. What you see is a modeled chart: the shoreline is real, the max depth is published, and the contours between are estimated. Plan with it; don't navigate by it. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
På kartet dekker Storvatnet 29 hektar innenfor 2.3 km strandlinje. Bassenget er enkelt (strandindeks 1.2) — nesten en bolle, så dybdekurvene betyr mer enn stranden. Hele vannet er grunnere enn ~5 m — vegetasjon og byttefisk fra strand til strand. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 0.8 km, på det bredeste 0.5 km. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Nervatnet, 12.9 km mot sørøst.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Storvatnet, Norge: omtrentlige dybdekoter ned til 2 m (7 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 0.5 to 2 m. Through summer count on 0.5 to 2 m; the winter hold is 0.5 to 2 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) is the honest summer answer here.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 2 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 0.5 to 2 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m | dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 0.5 to 2 m. The depth story barely changes: 0.5 to 2 m through summer, 0.5 to 2 m in winter. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 2 m | dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 0.5 to 2 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 0.5 to 2 m covers summer, 0.5 to 2 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. 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 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 2 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2 m. Even in summer they hold at 0.5 to 2 m; winter keeps them in 0.5 to 2 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 2 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 2 m | dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 0.5 to 2 m | dusk | Break off the point (1 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Early season arctic char use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2 m. Even in summer they hold at 0.5 to 2 m; winter keeps them in 0.5 to 2 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 2 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) and you're in the game.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 2 m | dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Jigging spoon vertical, Tube jig (smelt) |
| Høst | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dusk | Break off the point (1 m) | Casting spoon (orange/gold), Beadhead streamer |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |
6 pieces of structure are mapped here — Main-lake point, around 2 m, is the deepest of them.

Storvatnet is about 7 ft (2 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.
Storvatnet er på det dypeste omtrent 2 meter (7 fot). Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje — bruk det som veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char on Storvatnet. 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.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
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.
