Fishing Svartavasstjørna: what the data says
99-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 59 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The drawn water covers 99 acres wrapped in 2.9 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (2.1) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. 59% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water.
