Fishing Grays Pond in Westchester County, New York

• Overview

  You will find Grays Pond in Westchester County, New York. The sea is 8.1 miles distant. It covers about 4 acres, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Westchester County. The closest town, North Castle, is 3.2 miles away. North Stamford is the closest city, 4.3 miles away. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Grays Pond

  Depth is not on record here, so the bank has to tell you. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Built water gives depth close in, which suits a bank angler. Westchester County records list common carp, striped bass, bluegill and brown trout among the fish reported. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. The shape of Grays Pond rewards a slow walk along one bank.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-term averages put July at about 73°F and January near 28°F. Ice comes and goes from one year to the next. In a normal year the cover is thin and short-lived. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. The season on Grays Pond rarely departs from it. Consistent weather beats warm weather for steady sport.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. The nearest alternative is Mianus Reservoir, 0.6 miles out. Ask locally about Grays Pond if anything is unclear.
