5.8-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Auf der Karte umfasst Straßensee 2,4 Hektar hinter 0.6 km Uferlinie. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.1) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Düstersee, 1.6 km Richtung Südwesten.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Straßensee, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 5 m (17 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Karpfen und Hecht. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des LUNG Mecklenburg-Vorpommern). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 1.5 to 5 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 5 m. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 4.5 m of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, common carp run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 4.5 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 5 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 4.5 m, rated prime for winter common carp. Time it for early morning and the evening.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | open water | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (4.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) |
Spring puts european eel in skinny water — 1 to 5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 5 m, and winter fish hold in 1.5 to 5 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 4.5 m, rated prime for winter european eel. Plan around after dark and the evening in the warm months.

| Frühling | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 12 m | night | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1.5 to 5 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 2.5 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in fall. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring roach on Straßensee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 5 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 2.5 m that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a tiny spoon or a micro jig.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 1.5 to 5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (4.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Come spring, look for rudd tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 0.5 to 3.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 4.5 m that scores prime in winter. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon is the honest summer answer here.

Straßensee also holds white bream (1.5 to 5 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
Structure-wise the chart holds 3 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 4.5 m.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Straßensee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Straßensee is about 17 ft (5 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.
Straßensee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 5 Meter (17 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, common carp, european eel, northern pike, roach, rudd, white bream on Straßensee. 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 15 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in 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 Straßensee is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
