On size it sits at the modest end of our Darlington County list. Timmonsville at 4.7 miles is the nearest place to stop. Columbia sits 60 miles out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. It sits near the edge of the county, so check which rules apply.

• Where to Fish on Boyds Pond

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. Points where the flooded channel swings in are the reliable ones. Held water runs deepest at the wall and shallows back to the inflow. On Boyds Pond the obvious spot is not always the productive one. A drop in wind often turns the surface quiet and the fishing slow.

• Seasonal Patterns

  On the long-term average, July reads 80°F and January reads 44°F. Winter here means light layers, not lost months. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer squeezes it into the edges of the day. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. That shapes the year on Boyds Pond.
