Tylers Pond Fishing Guide, Aiken County, South Carolina

• Overview

  Tylers Pond falls in Aiken County, part of South Carolina. What surrounds it is oak and grass. About 17 acres of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. The closest town, Williston, is 11 miles away. Further out sit Blackville (16 miles) and Aiken (18 miles). If this one is busy: Goodyear Pond out at 1.2 miles, Baughmans Mill Pond some 4 miles off, Aiken State Park Lake out at 4.2 miles, Brodies Pond some 4.3 miles off and Millers Pond out at 4.3 miles. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Tylers Pond

  Depth is not on record here, which means reading the ground instead. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Open occurrence data for the surrounding area lists savannah darter, eastern blackbanded darter and bluespotted sunfish. Take it as evidence of what swims here, not a promise for one session. Read Tylers Pond before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 81°F at the top of summer and 45°F at the bottom of winter. No part of the year shuts this water. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. At Tylers Pond the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. Bluegill and other panfish take small jigs or worms under a float near any cover. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. If the gate is shut, Goodyear Pond at 1.2 miles is the nearest alternative. Confirm before you fish Tylers Pond.
