The Silzsee between Hockenheim and Speyer is a former, elongated gravel pit in the Rheinauen. The lake is surrounded by trees. Especially at the northwest end there are shallow water zones. The other banks seem to slope more evenly. With the westerly wind, which is mostly common in Germany, the east bank should be suitable for a hide when warm surface water flows in onshore and cool deep water is displaced. If there are trees in the water, these are clear starting points in the otherwise structurally poor lake.

Unfortunately, you can only see the Silzsee well from the 'other' side.
