Cheesemans Pond Fishing Guide, Baine Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador

• Overview

  Cheesemans Pond belongs to Baine Harbour, Newfoundland and Labrador. Salt water lies 8.6 km off. The water covers around 1.02 sq km, which puts most of it out of reach from the bank. The outline measures near 10 km, so local knowledge counts. Marystown at 29 km is the nearest place to stop. After that come Burin at 39 km and Harbour Breton at 59 km. It sits near the edge of the county, so check which rules apply.

• Where to Fish on Cheesemans Pond

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Fish Cheesemans Pond to its features, not to its size. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 16°C at the top of summer and -6°C at the bottom of winter. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer and winter test it. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around late April. From about late April to around mid December, expect open water on the long-run figures. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. The season on Cheesemans Pond follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. If the gate is shut, Northwest Pond at 2.8 km is the nearest alternative. Check the current arrangement for Cheesemans Pond.
