4,698-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 39 m. The depth picture is modeled, anchored to the true shoreline and the water's published max depth — a scouting aid, never a chart to run a boat by. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Tärnasjön mäter 1 897 hektar bakom 48.3 km strandlinje. Ett strandindex på 3.1 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 36% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 16.4 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 2.6 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Sorsele kommun. Överuman ligger 22.5 km åt väster — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Tärnasjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 39 m (128 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| 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 | Weed flat (2.5 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 |
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 10 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
| 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 | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season brown trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 7.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 7.5 to 18 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 11 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 18 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and early morning. Tie on a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (18 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (10 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
When the water first warms, lake whitefish slide up into 4.5 to 14 m. Summer is a 12 to 27 m game here, winter a 7.5 to 21 m one. Start at Sharp break. It's a drop-off holding about 4.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 12 to 27 m | dawn | Break off the point (18 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (18 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Start shallow in spring: burbot sit in 7.5 to 21 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 15 to 37 m; cold water stacks them in 4.5 to 18 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 33 m range, prime in summer. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. Throw a heavy jig + cut bait until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (18 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (33 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (18 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (18 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Tärnasjön carries 11 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 33 m down.

Tärnasjön is about 128 ft (39 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Tärnasjön. 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 6 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For northern pike, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
