Green Pond Fishing near Tupper Lake, New York

• Overview

  You will find Green Pond in Franklin County, New York. Everything around it is lake country bush. Around 62 acres of surface means several distinct areas to work.

No border sits close enough to matter.

• Where to Fish on Green Pond

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Franklin County records list brook trout, white sucker and brown trout among the fish reported. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. At Green Pond the water rewards a slow, careful approach.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 65°F in July and bottoms out near 13°F in January. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. Firm cover through the cold months, then open water from late April. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about late April until roughly early December. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. The season on Green Pond rarely departs from it.
