42-acre river near Terwolde. The river tops out around 9 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The drawn water covers 42 acres wrapped in 10.8 miles of bank, broken up by an island. An index of 12 puts the bank firmly in maze territory: point after pocket after cove, every one a casting target. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. Call it 4 mi long by 1.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. Apeldoorns Kanaal sits 2 mi northwest — the closest neighbouring chart.
