90-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 2.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 36 Hektar mit 3.5 km Ufer, mit einer Insel im Wasser. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.7) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.3 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Im Langen Ort, 3.2 km Richtung Süden.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Through summer count on 1 to 2.5 m; the winter hold is 1 to 2.5 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 2.5 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 2.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 0.5 to 2.5 m. The depth story barely changes: 1 to 2.5 m through summer, 1 to 2.5 m in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 2 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | |

| Winter | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) |
Early season european eel use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 0.5 to 2.5 m; winter keeps them in 1 to 2.5 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 2 m, prime for winter. Best bite is after dark and the evening.

| Winter | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer keeps them at 0.5 to 2.5 m, and they winter in 1 to 2.5 m. Spring roach concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.

Spring tench on Sumpfsee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 0.5 to 2.5 m in summer, 1 to 2.5 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

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 Sumpfsee 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.

Sumpfsee is about 9 ft (3 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.
Sumpfsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 3 Meter (9 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, common bream, european eel, roach, tench, zander on Sumpfsee. 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. 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 Sumpfsee 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.
