125.6-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 3 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 51 Hektar mit 5.6 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.2) — Buchten und Landzungen überall, was die befischbare Kante vervielfacht. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 2.4 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.6 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Ferchesarer See, 8 km Richtung Nordosten.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Wolzensee, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 3 m (10 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Hecht, Quappe und mehr. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des Landesamts für Umwelt Brandenburg). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3 m. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 3 m; winter keeps them in 1 to 3 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
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 3 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 1 to 3 m in summer and finish the year down in 1 to 3 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.

| 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 | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for burbot tight to the bank in 1 to 3 m. Through summer count on 1 to 3 m; the winter hold is 1 to 3 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. A heavy jig + cut bait is the honest summer answer here.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommer | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Herbst | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Winter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Early season common carp use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 3 m. Even in summer they hold at 0.5 to 3 m; winter keeps them in 1 to 3 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.

Wolzensee carries 5 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 2.5 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 Wolzensee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Wolzensee is about 10 ft (3 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.
Wolzensee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 3 Meter (10 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, burbot, common carp on Wolzensee.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each 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.
