Hard light and clear air over the water, with a faint NNE drift with the glass slipping lower. Expect most activity at Hidden Acres Pond around the shaded bank through the bright hours. Expect the better fishing from night into morning. Give the likely spots time before moving. The pre-winter feed makes autumn days generous.

You will find Hidden Acres Pond in Richland County, South Carolina. The water sits 312 feet up. Surface area runs to about 4 acres — small enough to read in one session. Most waters listed here for Richland County are larger. Blythewood is the closest place, 5.2 miles off. Dentsville follows at 5.3 miles, then Woodfield at 6.1 miles. No county line comes close, which keeps the paperwork simple.
We hold no depth figure for this one. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. Biodiversity records within roughly six miles include bluegill, redbreast sunfish, largemouth bass and brown bullhead. Use it to know what is possible here, not what is certain. Hidden Acres Pond gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.
July is the warm end of the year here, averaging about 81°F, while January sits near 44°F. Winter is a mild inconvenience here, nothing more. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to be out. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. Hidden Acres Pond fishes to that pattern most years.
Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. The closest car park is half a mile away, so pack accordingly. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Sunny Acres Pond, 0.2 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Confirm before you fish Hidden Acres Pond.
