606.2-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 6 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 244 Hektar mit 12.9 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.3) — 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 4.3 km, an der breitesten Stelle 1.4 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer Zug, 1.6 km Richtung Südosten.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Zeuthener See, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 6 m (20 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Hecht, Zander und mehr. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des Landesamts für Umwelt Brandenburg). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 2 to 6 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
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 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Zeuthener See hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| 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 |
When the water first warms, zander slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 2 to 6 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 5 m that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in the evening and early morning. Keep a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait rigged through the warm months.
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 | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Deep basin (5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Come spring, look for common carp tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 4.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2 to 6 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.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |

| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Winter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (5 m) |
Spring asp on Zeuthener See hold shallow, usually 1 to 5.5 m. By summer they slide out to 1 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 2 to 6 m. The chart's best answer is Secondary point — point, 1 m, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (1 m) | see map |
| Sommer | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (1 m) | see map |
| Herbst | 1 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 9 m | midday | Secondary point (1 m) | see map |
| Winter | 2 to 6 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 12 m | midday | Deep basin (5 m) | see map |
In spring, bleak run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 0.5 to 4.5 m before dropping to 2 to 6 m for winter. Winter bleak concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon most summer days.

Zeuthener See is about 20 ft (6 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.
Zeuthener See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 6 Meter (20 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, common carp, asp, bleak, common bream, crucian carp, european eel, european smelt, ide, roach, rudd, ruffe, tench, white bream on Zeuthener See.
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.
Fishing on Zeuthener 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.
