  On the long-term average, August reads 16°C and February reads -5°C. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around late April. The season between ice runs from about late April to mid December. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. Clanceys Inside Pond runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. For the trout, small spinners and a box of nymphs cover both approaches. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Should this one be busy, Clanceys Hill Pond is 0.8 km off. For Clanceys Inside Pond in particular, ask before you travel.
