453.7-acre lake in Estonia. The lake tops out around 2.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency 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 183 hektari suurusena, kallast 8.4 km, ja vees on üks saar. Kaldajoon on mõõdukalt liigestatud (indeks 1.8). Kogu veekogu on madalam kui ~5 m — taimestik ja söödakala kaldast kaldani. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 2.1 km, kõige laiemas kohas 1.3 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Tänavjärv, 3.2 km itta.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Through summer count on 1 to 2.5 m; the winter hold is 1 to 2.5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Hooaeg | Sügavus | Parim aeg | Alusta siit | Landid |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevad | 0.5 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Suvi | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Sügis | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talv | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 2.5 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 2.5 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 2 m that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.

Spring burbot on Veskijärv hold shallow, usually 1 to 2.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1 to 2.5 m in summer, 0.5 to 2.5 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 2.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.
