152.4-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 4.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 62 Hektar mit 4.3 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.6) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.8 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.6 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Ferchesarer See, 3.2 km Richtung Süden.

Early season asp use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 0.5 to 4.5 m; winter keeps them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Main-lake point first on the milk run — a point near 0.5 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.
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 | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | see map |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | see map |
| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 9 m | midday | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | see map |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 12 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) | see map |
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 1.5 to 4.5 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 1.5 m, rated prime for fall bleak. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon covers the summer program.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1.5 to 4.5 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 4 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Back-bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | |

| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) |
Early season european eel use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 4.5 m; winter keeps them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 4 m, prime for winter. Best bite is after dark and the evening.

| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (1.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | |

| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 4.5 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Start at Back-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 | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (4 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (4 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 1.5 to 4.5 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 0.5 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.

Witzker See is about 15 ft (5 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.
Witzker See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 5 Meter (15 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target asp, bleak, common bream, european eel, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, ruffe, tench, white bream, zander on Witzker See.
Main-lake point is the top-rated area: a point in about 2 ft of water that rates prime for asp in summer. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For asp, 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 Witzker See 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.
