Greeleys Pond, Massachusetts: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Greeleys Pond belongs to Norfolk County, Massachusetts. This is mixed woodland country. This is a pocket water of some 3 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. Most waters listed here for Norfolk County are larger. The closest town, Foxborough, is 2.8 miles distant. The nearest city of size is South Boston, 19 miles away. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Greeleys Pond

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. Draw-down through summer strips the margins, so follow the water out. Built water gives depth close in, which suits a bank angler. Species logged across Norfolk County include bluegill, pumpkinseed and chain pickerel. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Greeleys Pond gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between 27°F in January and 72°F in July. Ice comes and goes from one year to the next. In milder years the edges alone go, and the middle never sets. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. That is the shape of the year on Greeleys Pond. Water temperature lags behind air temperature by days, not hours.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. You will be walking about half a mile from the nearest car park. Norfolk County Canoe River Wilderness Area covers this ground, which means extra rules to check. Pike mean a wire trace, no exceptions; big spoons and jerkbaits do the searching. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. If the gate is shut, Vandys Pond at 1.3 miles is the nearest alternative. Check the position on Greeleys Pond before loading the car.
