  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. Being tidal, the water moves twice a day, and the fishing moves with it. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Records show what people reported, so treat the list as a guide to what lives in the area. On Toumer Mill Pond a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

February into May fishes hardest as the water warms. Plan any trip to Toumer Mill Pond around it. Nights draw in quickly late in the season, so plan the walk back.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. No slipway, car park or made path shows up nearby in mapping, so treat access as rough. For the trout, small spinners and a box of nymphs cover both approaches. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Lily Lagoon sits 0.4 miles off and takes the overflow. Treat access at Toumer Mill Pond as something to verify.
