• Where to Fish on Stricklands Pond

  There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Open occurrence data for the surrounding area lists largemouth bass, speckled madtom, swamp darter and sailfin shiner. The records cover the area rather than this water alone. Stricklands Pond gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 82°F and January near 49°F on the long-run figures. There is no dead season here at all. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. Spring and autumn carry the year; summer squeezes it into the ends of the day. Plan around that when you fish Stricklands Pond. Falling water concentrates fish into the deeper parts.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. Parking sits half a mile out, which makes for a walk with tackle. A pier 140 yards from here gives a platform over deeper water. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Edwards Millpond, 2.9 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Where Stricklands Pond is concerned, a local answer beats a written one.
