Little Long Pond, New York: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Look for Little Long Pond in Suffolk County, New York. It lies 16 feet above sea level. Small at around 6 acres: two anglers spread out cover most of it. By elevation it sits in the lower part of our New York listings. 1.1 miles away sits Bridgehampton, the nearest town. Water Mill is 1.5 miles and Noyack 4.4 miles. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Little Long Pond

  No chart reached our records; the first cast is your sounding. Salt or brackish and tidal: fish the flow, rest at slack, and watch the mud on a falling tide. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. At Little Long Pond the water rewards a slow, careful approach.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 72°F, the coldest about 30°F. Spring and autumn are the strongest, but nothing is truly closed. Some winters give nothing at all, so plan for open water. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. On Little Long Pond that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Mapping shows parking within half a mile. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Should this one be busy, Kellis Pond is 0.4 miles off. None of that is settled for Little Long Pond in what we hold.
