Georgiaville Pond in Providence County: How and When to Fish It

• Overview

  Georgiaville Pond falls in Providence County, part of Rhode Island. Beyond the shoreline you have open valley. With some 96 acres of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one. The bank runs about 2.0 miles all the way round, so one visit can cover most of it. Few waters listed in Providence County are bigger. Greenville sits 2.6 miles from the bank. Smithfield is 2.7 miles away, with North Providence at 3.9 miles. Rules here are straightforward: one county, one set of rules.

• Where to Fish on Georgiaville Pond

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Species logged across Providence County include bluegill, common carp, pumpkinseed, black crappie and chain pickerel. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Fish Georgiaville Pond where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 71°F in July and bottoms out near 26°F in January. Seasons here are moderate, and the fishing runs most of the year. In milder years the edges alone go, and the middle never sets. March through May is the strongest run, with October and November a second stretch. Georgiaville Pond runs to that rhythm year in and year out.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. There is a slipway on the shore, half a mile from the water we list. The nearest car park is half a mile from the water. There are picnic tables recorded roughly half a mile off. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. For a change of water, Stillwater Pond is 1.4 miles distant. Check the current arrangement for Georgiaville Pond.
