Fishing at Kingsbury Pond, Norfolk County, Massachusetts

• Overview

  Kingsbury Pond is listed under Norfolk County, Massachusetts. The water sits 141 feet up. The water measures roughly 12 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. The nearest place of any size is Medway, 1.8 miles away. Then Norfolk, 2.5 miles, and Franklin, 3 miles. Rules can differ a short way off, since the county line is near.

• Where to Fish on Kingsbury Pond

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Fish documented in Norfolk County include bluegill, pumpkinseed, chain pickerel and yellow perch. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Anyone new to Kingsbury Pond should walk it once before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 71°F and January near 26°F. Neither winter nor summer shuts things down for long. In milder years the edges alone go, and the middle never sets. June to September is hot work, so the first and last hours are what count. Expect Kingsbury Pond to follow that timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. There is a slipway on the shore, half a mile from the water we list. Part of this sits inside or beside Kingsbury Pond Access, so read the notices. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Populatic Pond, 0.6 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Rules at Kingsbury Pond are worth checking on the day.
