Fish and Useful Baits at North Pond

Fish reported from North Pond include bluegill, brown bullhead, largemouth bass, and longear sunfish.

Bass

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

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

Bluegill in North Pond are practical targets with a worm or small jig suspended beside shallow cover.

Catfish, Bullheads and Carp

Bullheads at North Pond will take worms and small pieces of cut bait presented close to soft bottom.

A Simple Fishing Plan for North Pond

Pick one kind of cover and fish it carefully, then compare it with a second cover type before moving far on North Pond. Then compare natural weed edges, shaded shoreline and changes from soft to firm bottom around North Pond before searching the middle.

When to Fish North Pond

On North Pond, spring fish often move onto protected banks before the open basin warms. Summer fishing on North Pond is usually best at low light, beside shade or along the outside edge of healthy cover. During fall at North Pond, revisit creek mouths and main points with baitfish-sized lures.
