Rating depth structure for northern pike.

9,113-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 306 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
På kartet dekker Totak 3 680 hektar innenfor 73.9 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 3.4) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 0% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 23 km, på det bredeste 7.2 km. Vannet ligger i Vinje kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Våmarvatn, 4.8 km mot sør.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Totak, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 306 m (1004 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Come spring, look for brown trout tight to the bank in 1 to 7.5 m. They move out to 7.5 to 18 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 11 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shoreline point: a point around 5 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) is the honest summer answer here.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Offshore hump (11 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Shoreline point (9 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | open water | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 10 m for winter. The spot to know is Offshore hump, an offshore hump in about 9 m of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Offshore hump (9 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Offshore hump (9 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (9 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. The spot to know is Shoreline point, a point in about 5 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline point (5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shoreline point (5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 4.5 to 14 m. Expect a summer slide to 12 to 27 m, then a winter hold in 7.5 to 21 m. Put Offshore hump first on the milk run — an offshore hump near 25 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.

| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (11 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |

| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (11 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Early season arctic char use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 6 to 18 m, then a winter hold in 3 to 12 m. Put Offshore hump first on the milk run — an offshore hump near 11 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) and you're in the game.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |

| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | midday & dusk | Offshore hump (9 m) | Casting spoon (orange/gold), Beadhead streamer |
| Vinter | 3 to 12 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (11 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |

Totak is about 1004 ft (306 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char on Totak. 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.
Offshore hump is the top-rated area: an offshore hump in about 82 ft of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in summer. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and 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 Totak is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
