The lake offers an abundance of space, beautiful island sceneries and a chance to break your own catch records.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of its basic type, the water in Lake L\u00e4ngelm\u00e4vesi is bright but slightly muddy, which means that the visible depth is not very good in the summertime. Flowing from northeast to southwest, the lake is divided into five sections separated by narrow sounds.<\/p>\n<p>At the northeast end lies the Koljonselk\u00e4 area with wate<\/p>\n<p>South to R\u00f6nni Sound spreads out a wide section formed by Pappilanselk\u00e4, Ristiselk\u00e4 and Enonselk\u00e4 areas, which are a good site for catching big zander and pike. The deeps are extensive, but shore waters are shallow far into the lake. In many places, water depth is less than two metres even hundreds of metres away from the shore.<\/p>\n<p>Ponsanselk\u00e4 is a large and wide open mid-lake area. To the south of Patasalmi Sound, the lake becomes shallower and more fragmented, thus providing plenty of great pike spots.<\/p>\n<p>Pike and zander are the most sought-after game species on Lake L\u00e4ngelm\u00e4vesi. You can go after zander in sites such as the entire Pappilanselk\u00e4 area, in Ristiselk\u00e4 area located to the west of Er\u00e4salo, the western and northern parts of Ponsanselk\u00e4 and along the boat route between Pelisalmi and Vahderp\u00e4\u00e4nsalmi sounds.<\/p>\n<p>Ideal sites for catching pike include waters close to R\u00f6nninsalmi Sound, the areas surrounding Kivikari Islet on Pappilanselk\u00e4 and Koivulahti Bay in the spring, the shore areas of Enonselk\u00e4 and the areas surrounding Mustisaari Island, the northern shore waters of Ponsanselk\u00e4 and the entire area between Patasalmi Sound and Kaivanto Canal.<\/p>\n<p>On Lake L\u00e4ngelm\u00e4vesi, similar to many other lakes in the Tampere Region, the amount of big perch has increased during the 21st century. You can head to the shallows of the Ponsanselk\u00e4 mid-lake area, for example, to go after big perch weighing as much as a kilo.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":447,"template":"","region":[7,15],"destination_type":[53,52],"species":[],"class_list":["post-169","fishing_destination","type-fishing_destination","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","region-langelmavesi","region-vesijarvi","destination_type-great-lakes","destination_type-lakes"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fishing_destination\/169","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/fishing_destination"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/fishing_destination"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/447"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/region?post=169"},{"taxonomy":"destination_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/destination_type?post=169"},{"taxonomy":"species","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zanderland.fi\/nederlands\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/species?post=169"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
