Fishing at Sing Sing Pond, Piscataquis County, Maine

• Overview

• Where to Fish on Sing Sing Pond

  We hold no depth figure for this one. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Piscataquis County records list Atlantic salmon, rainbow smelt, brook trout and brown trout among the fish reported. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Sing Sing Pond repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 65°F, the coldest about 10°F. Winter closes the water for a while, and the reopening is worth catching. The freeze runs deep into the year, with break-up near late April. Averages suggest open water from about late April through to roughly late November. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn. Sing Sing Pond fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. Public data has parking about half a mile from the shore. 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. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Failing this one, try Little Penobscot Pond, 0.5 miles away. Rules at Sing Sing Pond are worth checking on the day.
