Thin cloud passing over the water tonight, with a mirror surface most of the day and pressure ticking upward. On Green Pond, work margins first, middle later first. If you must go, go in the night. One good spot fished well beats five fished quickly. Autumn fish are feeding up and less fussy than in summer.

Green Pond falls in Oxford County, part of Maine. The coast is 27 miles away. Surface area is around 41 acres, which gives you real water without needing a boat. Around 1.1 miles of margin, front to back. The nearest place of any size is Oxford, 2.7 miles away. Manchester is the closest city, 91 miles away. This one sits near enough to a boundary to be worth checking.
Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Records held for Oxford County cover brown trout, Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout and smallmouth bass. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Read Green Pond before you fish it and the day goes better.
Expect July near 68°F and January near 18°F on the long-run figures. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from early April. The season between ice runs from about early April to mid December. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. Green Pond fishes to that pattern most years.
Public data does not answer the access question here. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. A campsite is mapped about half a mile away, which makes an early start easier. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Should this one be busy, Mud Pond is 0.5 miles off. What applies at Green Pond may have changed since it was mapped.
