Fish species in Harrisville Pond

Harrisville Pond covers 56.22 acres in Burlington County. Dependable maximum-depth and storage-volume figures were not found for Harrisville Pond, so those measurements should not be guessed.

What to Expect at Harrisville Pond

At 56.22 acres, Harrisville Pond is small enough to fish methodically but large enough for one shoreline to differ from another.

Fish and Useful Baits at Harrisville Pond

Fish reported from Harrisville Pond include black crappie, bluegill, brown bullhead, chain pickerel, channel catfish, common carp, largemouth bass, longear sunfish, and yellow perch.

Bass

Largemouth bass in Harrisville Pond can be searched with a spinnerbait before a Texas-rigged worm is worked through the best cover.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

A soft-plastic minnow or live minnow placed beside cover is a sound crappie approach on Harrisville Pond. For sunfish on Harrisville Pond, keep a cricket or tiny jig close to weed edges and shaded wood. For Harrisville Pond yellow perch, work a light jig slowly along the first firm-bottom break.

Chain Pickerel

Chain pickerel in Harrisville Pond can be found with spoons, spinnerbaits and small swimbaits along vegetation.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Harrisville Pond

Begin with the first clear depth change, then test nearby wood, weeds or rock instead of making random casts on Harrisville Pond. Then compare the incoming-water end of Harrisville Pond with the dam side and any point that reaches the old channel.

When to Fish Harrisville Pond

Early spring on Harrisville Pond calls for a slow presentation near the first break outside protected water. At midday in summer, Harrisville Pond anglers should slow down beside shade, weeds or a nearby depth change. Fall on Harrisville Pond is a good time for small crankbaits and swimbaits around moving forage.
