937-acre lake near Falun. The lake tops out around 16 m. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Vikasjön mäter 381 hektar bakom 14.3 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 2.1) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Cirka 50% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 4.2 km, som bredast 1.8 km. Vattnet hör till Falun kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Hällsjön, 3.2 km åt söder.

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 2 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 (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay 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 european perch on Vikasjön hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3.5 to 10 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 2 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).
| 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 zander on Vikasjön hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 4.5 to 11 m, and by winter most fish are in 6 to 12 m. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 7 m, prime for fall. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. The summer box starts with a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (4 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: roach sit in 0.5 to 3 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 5.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 11 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 2 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a tiny spoon or a micro jig until the fish tell you otherwise.
| 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 |
Start shallow in spring: rudd sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 0.5 to 3.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 9 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for rudd in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommar | 0.5 to 3.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Höst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Break off the point (7 m) | Micro jig |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 9 m | midday | open water | Tiny mormyshka |
Come spring, look for ruffe tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 3 to 9 m, then a winter hold in 4.5 to 12 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 7 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A micro jig is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | open water | 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 |
7 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 13 m, is the deepest of them.
