153.9-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 16 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Auf der Karte umfasst Werlsee 62 Hektar hinter 3.4 km Uferlinie. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.2) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 66% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.3 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Peetzsee, 1.6 km Richtung Nordosten.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 10 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: zander in 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 4.5 to 11 m before dropping to 6 to 12 m for winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 3.5 m of water that rates prime for zander in fall. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait gets it done.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Spring puts common carp in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 4.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3 to 9 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring common carp. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | |
| Winter | 3 to 9 m | midday | open water |
Start shallow in spring: asp sit in 1 to 5.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 7.5 m, and winter fish settle into 4.5 to 12 m. The spot to know is Main-lake point, a point in about 1 m of water that rates prime for asp in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 m) | see map |
| Sommer | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 m) | see map |
| Herbst | 2 to 9 m | midday | Break off the point (3.5 m) | see map |
| Winter | 4.5 to 12 m | midday | Break off the point (3.5 m) | see map |
Spring bleak on Werlsee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. By summer they slide out to 0.5 to 4.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 10 m. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 3.5 m, prime for fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (3.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Werlsee also holds common bream (2.5 to 7.5 m in summer), european eel (2 to 8.5 m in summer), roach (1 to 5.5 m in summer), rudd (0.5 to 3.5 m in summer), ruffe (3 to 9 m in summer), tench (1 to 3.5 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
Werlsee carries 6 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 15 m down.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Werlsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, common carp, asp, bleak, common bream, european eel, roach, rudd, ruffe, tench on Werlsee.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
