Fishing Harrison Pond in Johnson County, Georgia

• Overview

  The Johnson County end of Georgia holds Harrison Pond. It stands 256 feet above sea level. The water measures roughly 14 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. Supplies mean a trip to Wadley, 9.6 miles off. Then Wrightsville, 13 miles, and Swainsboro, 14 miles. Being near a boundary, it pays to know which side you are fishing.

• Where to Fish on Harrison Pond

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Take Harrison Pond a stretch at a time. Where the bottom hardens, expect the fish to be holding.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from 46°F in January up to 81°F in July. The surface stays open the year round. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. Spring and autumn carry the year; summer squeezes it into the ends of the day. Harrison Pond runs to that rhythm year in and year out.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Minton Pond, 3 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Check the position on Harrison Pond before loading the car.
