1,461-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 4.5 m. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
På kartan täcker Viren 590 hektar innanför 17.1 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 2) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Hela sjön är grundare än ~5 m — vegetation och betesfisk från strand till strand. Räkna med 5.6 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 2.4 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Tingsryd kommun. Rolsmosjön ligger 4.8 km åt nordväst — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Viren, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 4 m (14 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 4.5 m; cold water stacks them in 1 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
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 | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 4.5 m, wintering in 1 to 4.5 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.

| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |

Early season brown trout use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 4.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 4.5 m; winter keeps them in 0.5 to 4.5 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 2 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and early morning. Tie on a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) and you're in the game.

When the water first warms, common bream slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 4.5 m, winter 1 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 3.5 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

Come spring, look for european whitefish tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Through summer count on 1 to 4.5 m; the winter hold is 1 to 4.5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 3.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A small vertical spoon or a micro jig is the honest summer answer here.

When the water first warms, roach slide up into 0.5 to 3 m. Summer is a 1 to 4.5 m game here, winter a 1 to 4.5 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a tiny spoon or a micro jig rigged through the warm months.

Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Sweden waters are set by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service) — and special regulations can apply to Viren specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Viren is about 14 ft (4 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.
Viren är som djupast cirka 4 meter (14 fot). Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, common bream, european whitefish, roach, rudd, ruffe, tench, zander on Viren. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For northern pike, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Viren is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
