Flow Pond is a reservoir in Wyoming County, but a dependable surface-area figure was not found. Dependable maximum-depth and storage-volume figures were not found for Flow Pond, so neither should be estimated from a similarly named lake.

What to Expect at Flow Pond

Without trustworthy acreage or depth figures for Flow Pond, the safest approach is to read the water in front of you instead of assuming it fishes like another lake with the same name.

Fish and Useful Baits at Flow Pond

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

Bass

When largemouth bass hold tight to cover on Flow Pond, a compact jig or weedless worm is more useful than repeated open-water casts.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

For Flow Pond crappie, hold a 1/16-ounce jig or minnow beside wood instead of dragging it through snags. Bluegill in Flow Pond are practical targets with a worm or small jig suspended beside shallow cover. Yellow perch in Flow Pond are commonly caught with a small jig tipped with a minnow or worm near bottom.

Catfish, Bullheads and Carp

After dark, try a nightcrawler or cut bait near a channel turn when fishing Flow Pond for channel catfish.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Flow Pond

Let wind and water clarity choose the starting bank, then follow that bank until the bottom or cover changes on Flow Pond. Then check the original creek route, the dam end and any point on Flow Pond that reaches toward deeper water.

When to Fish Flow Pond

A sunny spring afternoon can pull Flow Pond fish toward dark bottom, wood and new vegetation. Summer fish in Flow Pond may feed shallow at dawn before settling beside cover or deeper structure. Cooling water can bring Flow Pond fish back to points and banks where bait gathers.
