• Where to Fish on Three Corner Pond

  No chart reached our records; the first cast is your sounding. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Capitol Planning Region records list bluegill, pumpkinseed and yellow perch among the fish reported. Records at this level tell you what is in the area. Work Three Corner Pond in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 72°F, the coldest about 24°F. Expect a real winter and a strong spring after it. After late March the shallows warm and the fish move up. Averages suggest open water from about late March through to roughly late December. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. Plan around that when you fish Three Corner Pond.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. There is recorded parking some half a mile off. This lies within protected land, so the rules will be stricter than usual. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Should this one be busy, Spring Pond is 0.6 miles off. None of that is settled for Three Corner Pond in what we hold.
