Rosner Pond near Waymart: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Rosner Pond belongs to Wayne County, Pennsylvania. The bank is 1,302 feet above sea level. It covers about 23 acres, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. For supplies, Waymart is 5.8 miles out. The big place round here is Allentown, 73 miles distant. It sits near the edge of the county, so check which rules apply.

• Where to Fish on Rosner Pond

  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Across Wayne County, recorded fish include yellow perch, bluegill and largemouth bass. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. Rosner Pond gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 67°F; the cold one sits at 21°F. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around early April. On average, early April opens the water and mid December closes it again. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. The season on Rosner Pond rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Long Pond at 0.9 miles is the sensible second choice. Confirm before you fish Rosner Pond.
