92-acre lake in Finland. The lake tops out around 25 m. The depth chart comes from Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Vesi piirtyy 37 hehtaarin laajuisena, rantaa 6.9 km. Rantaviiva on voimakkaasti rikkonainen (indeksi 3.2) — lahtia ja niemiä kaikkialla, mikä moninkertaistaa kalastettavan reunan. Noin 46% pinnasta on matalampaa kuin ~5 m — siellä ruokaketju elää. Päästä päähän vesi mittaa noin 2.1 km, leveimmillään 0.5 km. Vesi sijaitsee alueella Pieksämäen seutukunta. Lähin kartoitettu vesi on Suuri-Kaislanen, 1.6 km länteen.

Spring european perch on Syrjäjärvi hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3.5 to 10 m. The chart's best answer is Back-bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (4 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talvi | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (4 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Back-bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (4 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Syksy | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (4 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Talvi | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (4 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring zander on Syrjäjärvi hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 4.5 to 11 m, and by winter most fish are in 6 to 12 m. The chart's best answer is Secondary point — point, 3.5 m, prime for fall. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. The summer box starts with a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (3.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Kesä | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (3.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Syksy | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Secondary point (3.5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Talvi | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 4.5 to 14 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 7.5 to 25 m; cold water stacks them in 7.5 to 21 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 23 m range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon 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.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Kesä | 7.5 to 25 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (23 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Syksy | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Secondary point (3.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Talvi | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (23 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
When the water first warms, burbot slide up into 7.5 to 21 m. Summer is a 7.5 to 25 m game here, winter a 4.5 to 18 m one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 23 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.

| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (23 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Kesä | 7.5 to 25 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (23 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Syksy | 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (23 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Talvi | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (23 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
5 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 23 m, is the deepest of them.

Syrjäjärvi is about 82 ft (25 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Syrjäjärvi on syvimmillään noin 25 metriä (82 jalkaa). Syvyydet perustuvat todellisiin luotauksiin.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, lake whitefish, burbot on Syrjäjärvi. 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.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 4 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by 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 Syrjäjärvi is regulated by the Kalastusrajoitus.fi (official Finnish restriction service). Check the official Finland regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
