When to Fish Halfmoon Pond

Spring on Halfmoon is a good time to check warm coves and incoming water, and summer is a good time to fish shade, weeds and the first drop into deeper water. Fall on Halfmoon can bring fish back to windy points and banks, while winter calls for smaller baits fished slowly.
