• Where to Fish on Wallace Pond

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Public occurrence data for Essex County names rainbow trout, brook trout, brown trout and white sucker. Take it as the county picture rather than a promise for this water. Fish Wallace Pond where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

  Temperature averages peak at 64°F in July and bottom out at 12°F in January. Hard water is a season in its own right here. Break-up comes around mid April, and the run that follows is short and strong. Break-up sits around mid April on average, with the water closing again about early December.
