Kenan Pond Fishing in Logan County, Ohio

• Overview

  Logan County, Ohio, is where Kenan Pond sits. Pine and birch runs right down to the water. This is a tiny water, and one quiet approach covers all of it.

This one sits near enough to a boundary to be worth checking.

• Where to Fish on Kenan Pond

  We hold no depth figure for this one. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Logan County records list bluegill, white bass, channel catfish, rainbow darter and white sucker among the fish reported. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. The near bank of Kenan Pond is often the one people ignore.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about 25°F in January to roughly 72°F in July. Winter shuts things down for a spell, then spring reopens them fast. Firm cover through the cold months, then open water from mid March. On the long-run averages the water opens up around mid March and starts locking again about late December. The strong weeks are the first after break-up and the last before the freeze. On Kenan Pond that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. The nearest alternative is Braden Lake, 2.5 miles out. What applies at Kenan Pond may have changed since it was mapped.
