About Thunersee
Tucked into Bern/Berne, Switzerland, Thunersee is a lake that fishes differently season to season. Spring brings fish into the shallows to spawn or feed on early baitfish; midsummer pushes them to cooler, deeper water; autumn turns them aggressive again as they pack on weight before winter. Anglers planning a trip to Thunersee should check water temperature and recent weather — a sudden cold front can shut a lake like this down for a day.

Fishing Techniques
- For European whitefish
Use a slow retrieve or jigging action, keeping the lure close to the bottom where whitefish often feed; experiment with different depths.
- For Lake trout
Target deep water near structure or drop-offs, especially during warmer months, and vary your retrieve until you find what works.
- For European perch
Vary your retrieve speed and lure depth until you find what the perch are responding to on that day, and use light line.
