When you first fish Mower, check one quiet cove, one rocky or firm point and the nearby deep water with a moving lure, then use a jig or worm where you find fish.

When to Fish Mower Pond

Spring on Mower 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 Mower can bring fish back to windy points and banks, while winter calls for smaller baits fished slowly.
