Narrow Pond Fishing in Sally's Cove, Newfoundland and Labrador

• Overview

  In Newfoundland and Labrador, Narrow Pond belongs to Sally's Cove. It sits in lake country bush. At about 75 hectares, a day is enough to walk the shoreline properly. Some 7.2 km of bank gives room to move when the wind turns. Compared with other Newfoundland and Labrador water on our list, it sits high. For a base, Deer Lake sits 61 km out. Pasadena lies 76 km off, Irishtown-Summerside another 85 km. It lies deep inside the county rather than near an edge.

• Where to Fish on Narrow Pond

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. 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. On Narrow Pond that means starting tight and working out. Overhanging branches shade fish that would otherwise sit deeper.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 14°C in July and bottom out at -12°C in February. Winter shuts the surface down for months. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough late May. Ice clears near late May and comes back about mid November in a typical year. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. Plan around that when you fish Narrow Pond.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. No launch point is recorded nearby, so this is a bank water unless you carry a boat in. Take the rules with you rather than trusting memory. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Little Island Pond at 2.7 km is the sensible second choice. Check the current arrangement for Narrow Pond.
