Mores Pond Fishing near Social Circle, Georgia

• Overview

  Out in Newton County, Georgia, sits Mores Pond. The surroundings are oak and grass. At 15 acres it is the sort of place you fish for an evening rather than a day. Social Circle lies 7.6 miles from the water. For a city, Athens is 35 miles off. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive. Quiet on weekdays, busier when the weather turns fine.

• Where to Fish on Mores Pond

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Species logged nearby in open biodiversity records include bluegill, largemouth bass, redbreast sunfish and black crappie. Check the state or provincial list before planning around one species. On Mores Pond that means starting tight and working out.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Hays Pond, 1.3 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Ask locally about Mores Pond if anything is unclear.
