Fishing Yngaren: what the data says
11,836-acre lake near Nyköping. The lake tops out around 65 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
On the chart, Yngaren draws 11,937 acres inside 66.1 miles of shoreline, with 14 islands in the mix. With a shoreline index of 4.3, this water is all arms and coves — edge habitat well beyond its acreage. About 59% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
