Fish and Useful Baits at Tennent Pond

Fish reported from Tennent Pond include black crappie, bluegill, chain pickerel, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.

Bass

A spinnerbait, square-bill and Texas rig cover the most useful largemouth situations on Tennent Pond.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

Slow vertical presentations around wood and suspended cover are dependable for Tennent Pond crappie. Bluegill and other sunfish in Tennent Pond take worms, crickets and tiny jigs along shade and vegetation. Keep a small jig, minnow or worm close to the bottom when perch are the target on Tennent Pond.

Chain Pickerel

A spoon or compact swimbait worked beside weeds is a practical chain pickerel choice on Tennent Pond.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Tennent Pond

Keep one search bait and one slower follow-up bait ready so a short feeding window is not wasted on Tennent Pond. Then compare the incoming-water end of Tennent Pond with the dam side and any point that reaches the old channel.

When to Fish Tennent Pond

Spring at Tennent Pond favors warming coves, feeder mouths and protected spawning banks. Once summer heat settles over Tennent Pond, work the deepest active cover instead of assuming every fish has moved to the bottom. Windblown points on Tennent Pond become worth checking when autumn baitfish move shallow.
