492.7-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 22 m. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 200 Hektar mit 9 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.8) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 34% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 3.1 km, an der breitesten Stelle 1.8 km.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Back-bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (21 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (21 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 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. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 0.5 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. They move out to 4.5 to 11 m in summer and finish the year down in 6 to 12 m. If you only fish one area, make it Main-lake point: a point around 2 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (16 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Main-lake point (2 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (21 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Spring burbot on Vilzsee hold shallow, usually 7.5 to 21 m. By summer they slide out to 6.5 to 22 m, and by winter most fish are in 4.5 to 18 m.
