15-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 6 m. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Trolltjärnen mäter 6 hektar bakom 1 km strandlinje. Bassängen är enkel (strandindex 1.1) — nästan en skål, så djupkurvorna betyder mer än stranden. Cirka 82% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Vattnet hör till Torsby kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Tapptjärnen, 1.6 km åt norr.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Trolltjärnen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 6 m (20 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.
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring european perch on Trolltjärnen hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 2 to 6 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 6 m. Summer keeps them at 2 to 6 m, and they winter in 1 to 6 m. Shoreline break is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 2.5 m, rated prime for summer brown trout. Time it for after dark and early morning. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Shoreline break (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 2 to 6 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2 to 6 m covers summer, 2 to 6 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 5 m range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.

When the water first warms, burbot slide up into 2 to 6 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2 to 6 m, winter 1.5 to 6 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.

Trolltjärnen is about 20 ft (6 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 Trolltjärnen. 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 3 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every 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.
