2,550-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 40 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Vannet tegner ut 1 030 hektar med 25.6 km strand. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 2.2) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 15% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 6.6 km, på det bredeste 4.2 km. Vannet ligger i Lenvik kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Grasmyrskogvatnet, 16.1 km mot nordvest.

Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 1 to 7.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 7.5 to 18 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 11 m. Sharp break is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 8 m, rated prime for summer brown trout. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (6 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Sharp break — drop-off, 8 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Sharp break (8 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a feeding flat around 1.5 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Secondary point (3 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake whitefish in 4.5 to 14 m. As the season builds they drop to 12 to 27 m, wintering in 7.5 to 21 m. Top water on the chart: Sharp break, a drop-off in the 8 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 12 to 27 m | dawn | Break off the point (19 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Sharp break (8 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (19 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: arctic char in 1 to 4.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 18 m, wintering in 3 to 12 m. Top water on the chart: Sharp break, a drop-off in the 8 m range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) gets it done.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |
| Sommer | 6 to 18 m | dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Jigging spoon vertical, Tube jig (smelt) |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | midday & dusk | Sharp break (8 m) | Casting spoon (orange/gold), Beadhead streamer |
| Vinter | 3 to 12 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (8 m) | Jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + plastic |
Start shallow in spring: atlantic salmon sit in 1.5 to 9 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 6 to 21 m, and winter fish settle into 3 to 14 m. The spot to know is Sharp break, a drop-off in about 8 m of water that rates prime for atlantic salmon in winter. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a trolling spoon or a flasher + fly until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (8 m) | Slim coastal spoon, Trolling spoon |
| Sommer | 6 to 21 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (19 m) | Trolling spoon, Flasher + fly |
| Høst | 1 to 8.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 m) | Casting spoon, Large streamer |
| Vinter | 3 to 14 m | midday | Sharp break (8 m) | Slow coastal spoon |
