39,637-acre Central Gulf of Riga. Sector 07 Estonia coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 official Estonian E50M hydrographic DTM / traceable CDI assessed contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official Estonian WFD named coastal assessment water in Gulf of Riga. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 29 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Kaardil katab Central Gulf of Riga - Sector 07 16 037 hektarit, kaldajoont 55 km. Nõgu on lihtne (kaldaindeks 1.2) — peaaegu kauss, seega sügavusjooned loevad rohkem kui kallas. Umbes 1% pinnast on madalam kui ~5 m — seal elab toiduahel. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 20.8 km, kõige laiemas kohas 14.6 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Northeast Gulf of Riga - Sector 12, 8 km itta.

Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 8.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 10 m. Feeding flat is the standout, a feeding flat at roughly 8 m, rated good for summer european perch. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.

| Talv | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.

| Talv | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | open water | Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts zander in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 4.5 to 11 m; cold water stacks them in 6 to 12 m. Shoreline point is the standout, a point at roughly 7.5 m, rated good for fall zander. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait covers the summer program.

| Kevad | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |

In spring, atlantic herring run shallow here, mostly 1.5 to 7.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 4.5 to 15 m before dropping to 6 to 18 m for winter. Summer atlantic herring concentrate at Sharp break, a good-rated drop-off around 15 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a herring feather rig or a small silver jig most summer days.

Early season european flounder use the shallows, holding in 1.5 to 7.5 m. Summer is a 2 to 11 m game here, winter a 4.5 to 15 m one. The chart's best answer is Feeding flat — feeding flat, 8 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bottom jig with spinner blade and you're in the game.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: sea trout in 1 to 6 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 4.5 to 15 m before dropping to 1.5 to 9 m for winter. The spot to know is Sharp break, a drop-off in about 15 m of water that rates prime for sea trout in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon gets it done.

Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Estonia waters are set by the Keskkonnaamet (Estonian Environmental Board coastal fishing rules) — and special regulations can apply to Central Gulf of Riga - Sector 07 specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Before every Estonian coastal trip, check the current Keskkonnaamet fishing-right requirements, protected-species rules, seasonal closures, river-mouth restrictions, minimum sizes, gear limits and any area-specific conservation measures. A mapped contour, fishing-spot marker, species roster or nearby harbour is planning context only. It never grants fishing or retention rights, shoreline entry, parking, launching access, permission to enter a port, or safe-navigation clearance; local signs, land ownership, weather, ice and vessel traffic still control.
