Fishing for eurasian minnow — practise in real Swedish lakes

eurasian minnow is documented in 1908 Swedish lakes on provfiska. Open a lake below and the simulation starts with eurasian minnow as the target — fish the water as it is right now, or turn time, season and weather.

Typical length: 7–9 cm · max 14 cmMost common depth: <3 mDocumented in: 1908 lakes (195 survey-fished)

Where in the depth column is eurasian minnow?

Share of the national survey catch per depth zone. The simulation uses the same distribution — fish the right depth and you hook more, and bigger.

<3 m78%
3-5.9 m18%
6-11.9 m3.6%
12-19.9 m<1%
20-34.9 m<1%

Which method takes eurasian minnow?

The simulation's technique selectivity — how readily the species takes a lure, a baited float or a vertical jig. The wrong method doesn't catch the wrong fish, just like in real life.
