114-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 10 m. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.

In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 10 m. Back-bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (6 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (9 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (9 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 6 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. Spring northern pike concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 0.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

In spring, zander run shallow here, mostly 1 to 4.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 3 to 10 m, and winter fish settle into 3 to 10 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 6 m, rated prime for fall zander. Time it for the evening and early morning. You won't need more than a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait most summer days.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (6 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (6 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (9 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: burbot in 3 to 10 m. The depth story barely changes: 3 to 10 m through summer, 2.5 to 10 m in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 9 m of water that rates prime for burbot in spring. Plan around after dark and midday in the warm months. Summer baits: a heavy jig + cut bait gets it done.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 3 to 10 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (9 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
