4,646-acre lake near Frövi. The lake tops out around 16 m. The contours come from a model of the real basin shape and its known max depth. Read them as probabilities, not soundings, and keep them out of navigation decisions. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Väringen mäter 1 753 hektar bakom 70.5 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 21 öar. Ett strandindex på 4.7 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 67% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 9 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 5.6 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Örebro kommun. Iljansjön ligger 3.2 km åt söder — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Väringen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 16 m (52 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda, gös med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 8.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 10 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (7 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (7 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (7 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Spring northern pike concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Weed flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts zander in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 4.5 to 11 m; cold water stacks them in 6 to 12 m. Creek inflow is the standout, an inflow / creek mouth at roughly 1.5 m, rated prime for spring zander. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Creek inflow (1.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommar | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (7 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Höst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (7 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Vinter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (7 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Start shallow in spring: burbot sit in 5 to 16 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 5 to 16 m covers summer, 4 to 16 m covers winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 13 m of water that rates prime for burbot in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and midday. Throw a heavy jig + cut bait until the fish tell you otherwise.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (13 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (13 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (13 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (13 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
When the water first warms, roach slide up into 0.5 to 3 m. By summer they slide out to 1 to 5.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3.5 to 11 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a tiny spoon or a micro jig rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (7 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (7 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
In spring, ruffe run shallow here, mostly 1 to 4.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 3 to 9 m, and winter fish settle into 4.5 to 12 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 7 m, rated prime for fall ruffe. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a micro jig most summer days.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Creek inflow (1.5 m) | Tiny bottom jig |
| Sommar | 3 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (7 m) | Micro jig |
| Höst | 3.5 to 11 m | dusk | Break off the point (7 m) | Tiny jigging spoon |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 12 m | dusk | Deep basin (13 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
