Georgie Pond near Hanahan: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  The Berkeley County entry here is Georgie Pond, in South Carolina. The water sits 10 feet up. By elevation it sits in the lower part of our South Carolina listings. The nearest town is Hanahan, 5.3 miles away. Beyond it, Goose Creek at 6 miles and North Charleston at 6.7 miles. The boundary is close enough to be worth checking before you fish.

• Where to Fish on Georgie Pond

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. 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. Public wildlife records from this area list flathead grey mullet, yellow bullhead, silver croaker and golden shiner. The records cover the area rather than this water alone. On Georgie Pond the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 81°F and January near 48°F on the long-run figures. Long warm spells define the calendar more than any cold. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. June to September is hot work, so the first and last hours are what count. Plan around that when you fish Georgie Pond.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. A car park lies half a mile away, so the walk in is short. A platform or pier sits within half a mile. A rest area sits about half a mile from the water. Catfish want bait on the bottom: cut bait or worms, a simple running rig, and patience after dark. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Wilson Pond sits 0.2 miles off and takes the overflow. Rules at Georgie Pond are worth checking on the day.
