Peabody Pond is a reservoir in Maine, near Cumberland County.
Peabody Pond is a pond in Cumberland County, Maine and covers about 740 acres, and a reliable maximum depth was not found, and the recorded storage amount is about 2,590 acre-feet.
Peabody Pond was made by holding back a river or creek, making the old channel, bends and quiet coves sensible places to begin.
Fish reported from Peabody Pond include landlocked Atlantic salmon, brown bullhead, cusk, chain pickerel, pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, white perch, and yellow perch.
For smallmouth bass in Peabody, drag a tube or Ned rig across rock and points, or use a small crankbait when the fish are chasing.
For panfish in Peabody, use a worm or tiny jig near weeds and shade for pumpkinseed, and fish a small jig, minnow or worm close to the bottom for yellow perch.
For pike, pickerel or muskellunge in Peabody, throw a small spoon or flashy swimbait along weeds for chain pickerel.
For brown bullheads in Peabody, put a nightcrawler or small piece of cut bait on the bottom in quiet water, especially after sunset.
For deep-water fish in Peabody, troll a smelt-colored streamer, thin spoon or small minnow plug for landlocked salmon and fish a jig or natural bait on the bottom in cold water or after dark for cusk. Also in Peabody, use a small jig, minnow or worm when white perch gather over deep flats and drop-offs.
Spring on Peabody 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 Peabody can bring fish back to windy points and banks, while winter calls for smaller baits fished slowly.
On a first trip to Peabody, check incoming water, one bend in the old channel and a point near deep water with a moving lure, then slow down with a jig or worm where you get a bite.
A medium spinning rod covers most casting at Peabody, while a second rod with enough line and weight to reach deep water is useful for salmon.
On Peabody, pick one cove and the closest point or drop into deep water, then fish that small area well before making a long move.
A reliable depth number was not found for Peabody, so anglers should rely on what they can see and what their lure touches.
On Peabody, it shows that a lot of the water sits away from the bank and around the old channel or deep end.
