Seabury Pond near Big Lake: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Look for Seabury Pond in Skagit County, Washington. The sea is 12 miles distant. The far bank is a conversation away, so keep low and quiet. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Skagit County. Big Lake at 6.3 miles is the nearest place to stop. Bryant is 7.8 miles and Clear Lake 9.2 miles. Being near a boundary, it pays to know which side you are fishing.

• Where to Fish on Seabury Pond

  Depth is unmeasured here, so let the shoreline guide you. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Across Skagit County, recorded fish include Coho salmon, Chum salmon, pink salmon and rainbow trout. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Read Seabury Pond for ten minutes before the first cast goes out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 60°F in August and bottom out at 35°F in December. In milder years the surface never sets. It is not guaranteed even in a cold spell, so check yourself. Autumn steadies things again once the heat lets go. Plan around that when you fish Seabury Pond. Early and late in the day beat the middle for most of the year.

• Tackle & Baits

  There is no clear statement anywhere on who can fish it. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. The nearest alternative is Summer Lake, 2.2 miles out. Signs at Seabury Pond carry more weight than any list.
