153.6-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 8 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Das Gewässer zeichnet 62 Hektar mit 4.8 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.7) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 80% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.4 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer Klobichsee, 3.2 km Richtung Westen.

Spring puts bleak in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 0.5 to 4.5 m; cold water stacks them in 2.5 to 8 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 7.5 m, rated prime for winter bleak. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 7.5 m before dropping to 2.5 to 8 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 7.5 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (7.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) |
Early season european eel use the shallows, holding in 1.5 to 6 m. Summer is a 2 to 8 m game here, winter a 2.5 to 8 m one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 7.5 m, prime for winter. Best bite is after dark and the evening.

| Frühling | 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (7.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 2 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (7.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 2 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 12 m | night | Break off the point (7.5 m) | |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8 m, then a winter hold in 2.5 to 8 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in 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 | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7.5 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 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 5.5 m before dropping to 2.5 to 8 m for winter. Spring roach concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.

Vorder- oder Haussee is about 27 ft (8 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Anglers target bleak, common bream, european eel, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, tench, white bream on Vorder- oder Haussee.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 25 ft of water that rates prime for bleak in winter. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For bleak, 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 Vorder- oder Haussee is regulated by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
