• Where to Fish on Indian Spring Pond

  We hold no depth figure for this one. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Western Connecticut Planning Region records list bluegill, brown trout, pumpkinseed, yellow perch and tessellated darter among the fish reported. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. At Indian Spring Pond the water rewards a slow, careful approach.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 29°F and July at about 74°F, the water has a wide range to work through. Temperature moves within a narrow band, and so does the fishing. Some winters give nothing at all, so plan for open water. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. On Indian Spring Pond that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. A protected area covers this ground, which usually means restrictions on access. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. The nearest alternative is Spahn Pond, 1.4 miles out. For Indian Spring Pond in particular, ask before you travel.
