24,225-acre Väinameri. Sector 02 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 West Estonian Archipelago. 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 7.5 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. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Veekogu joonistub 9 796 hektari suurusena, kallast 84.2 km, saari on 3. Kaldajoon on tugevalt liigestatud (indeks 2.4) — lahed ja neemed igal pool, mis mitmekordistab püütava serva. Umbes 85% pinnast on madalam kui ~5 m — seal elab toiduahel. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 15.1 km, kõige laiemas kohas 14.6 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Väinameri - Sector 01, 9.7 km läände.

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 european perch on Väinameri - Sector 02 hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2 to 7.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 7.5 m. Put Weed flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 2 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Suvi | 2 to 7.5 m | dawn | Deepest basin (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |

| Talv | 2.5 to 7.5 m | midday & dawn | Deepest basin (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. Start at Weed flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.

Spring zander on Väinameri - Sector 02 hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 7.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 7.5 m. Put Sharp break first on the milk run — a drop-off near 7.5 m that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. The summer box starts with a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait.

Early season atlantic herring use the shallows, holding in 1.5 to 7.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 2.5 to 7.5 m; winter keeps them in 2.5 to 7.5 m. The chart's best answer is Deepest basin — deep basin, 7.5 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a herring feather rig or a small silver jig and you're in the game.

In spring, european flounder run shallow here, mostly 1.5 to 7.5 m. Summer keeps them at 1 to 7.5 m, and they winter in 2.5 to 7.5 m. Spring european flounder concentrate at Feeding flat, a prime-rated feeding flat around 2.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a bottom jig with spinner blade most summer days.

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 Väinameri - Sector 02 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.

Väinameri - Sector 02 is about 25 ft (8 m) deep at its deepest point. 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.

Official coastal monitoring from Estonia national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the european perch, northern pike, zander, atlantic herring, european flounder, sea trout, european whitefish, atlantic salmon roster for Väinameri - Sector 02. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Weed flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in 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 Väinameri - Sector 02 is regulated by the Keskkonnaamet (Estonian Environmental Board coastal fishing rules). Check the official Estonia regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
