Fishing Spring Green Pond in Kent County, Rhode Island

• Overview

  In Rhode Island, Spring Green Pond falls inside Kent County. Tidal water begins 1.1 miles from here. This is a pocket water of some 9 acres, and every part of it is reachable from the bank.

• Where to Fish on Spring Green Pond

  Depth is not on record here, which means reading the ground instead. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. Open biodiversity records for Kent County list bluegill, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass and pumpkinseed. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Fish Spring Green Pond to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from 28°F in January up to 72°F in July. The season stretches long at both ends here. It should never be assumed safe, whatever the month says. The hot months push the fishing to dawn and dusk. It holds true on Spring Green Pond more years than not. Rain lifts the level and moves fish about.

• Tackle & Baits

  There is no clear statement anywhere on who can fish it. The nearest car park we can see is half a mile out, so expect a walk with your gear. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Warwick Pond sits 0.8 miles off and takes the overflow. Treat access at Spring Green Pond as something to verify.
