2,046-acre lake near Mullsjö. The lake tops out around 37 m. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Stråken mäter 940 hektar bakom 76.8 km strandlinje, med en ö i vattnet. Ett strandindex på 7.1 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 68% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 24.8 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 2.6 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Mullsjö kommun. Mullsjön ligger 3.2 km åt nordost — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Stråken, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 37 m (123 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre och siklöja. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
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 Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. 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.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
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 3.5 to 10 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season roach use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 3 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 5.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 11 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 2 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a tiny spoon or a micro jig and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (9.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | open water | Tungsten mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: ruffe in 1 to 4.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 3 to 9 m, wintering in 4.5 to 12 m. Top water on the chart: Tidan inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 2.5 m range, good in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a micro jig gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Tidan inflow (2.5 m) | Tiny bottom jig |
| Sommar | 3 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Micro jig |
| Höst | 3.5 to 11 m | dusk | open water | Tiny jigging spoon |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 12 m | dusk | open water | Tungsten mormyshka |
Start shallow in spring: vendace sit in 2.5 to 9 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 7.5 to 20 m, and winter fish settle into 4.5 to 15 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Micro silver spoon, Tiny white jig |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 20 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Micro jig fished vertically, Tiny flutter spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Tiny silver spoon, Micro mormyshka |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | open water | Tiny ice spoon, Tungsten mormyshka |
