Tewksbury Pond Fishing near Grafton, New Hampshire

• Overview

  In New Hampshire, Tewksbury Pond belongs to Grafton County. It sits in mixed forest country. With some 47 acres of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one. Roughly 1.3 miles of bank means you can walk to a fresh area when one goes quiet. Grafton is the closest place, 3.7 miles off. The big place round here is Manchester, 50 miles distant. The county edge is within a short distance of the bank.

• Where to Fish on Tewksbury Pond

  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Species logged across Grafton County include rainbow trout, brook trout and smallmouth bass. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. The shape of Tewksbury Pond decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 66°F at the top of summer and 17°F at the bottom of winter. A solid cap is the normal state through winter. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around mid April. Climate figures give an open season running mid April to early December. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. That shapes the year on Tewksbury Pond.
