Little Berry Pond Fishing Guide, Somerset County, Maine

• Overview

  Somerset County in Maine is where Little Berry Pond sits. This is pine and birch ground. This is a pocket water of some 15 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank.

There is no boundary nearby to worry about.

• Where to Fish on Little Berry Pond

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Reported across Somerset County: Atlantic salmon, brown trout and smallmouth bass. At least one recorded species is protected in parts of its range; read the local rules before targeting anything. Little Berry Pond repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 63°F in July and bottoms out near 10°F in January. A hard winter is normal, and the thaw brings a strong few weeks. Once it clears, about late April, the fishing comes on quickly. Averages suggest open water from about late April through to roughly late November. Fishing peaks soon after break-up and again before the cold returns. That shapes the year on Little Berry Pond.

• Tackle & Baits

  Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. The water borders Cold Stream Forest Public Reserved Land, so expect the reserve rules to apply. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Failing this one, try Durgin Pond, 0.4 miles away. Treat Little Berry Pond as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
