White Pond Fishing in Putnam County, New York
Poughquag Area

We went out and caught 23 Bass and 1 Pickerel in a weekend! None of the bass were over 2 lbs but lots of fun. Very shallow pond. Lot's of rocks!

Regularly fish this pond. It's a fun place to fish, has 2 docks, fairly large surface area, lots of weed beds and rocks, etc. Generally will catch large mouth bass, but will also catch lots of sunfish, crappie, and pickerel. Walleye are in the pond, not very likely to catch them though. There is also catfish, but they seem to be dying out over the last few years. Canoe or row bot is the best way to fish here, the dock is terribly over fished, but is still a decent fishing area. There are swimmers and divers here, and lots of people near the dock during the warmer months (average 3-7 people from 12pm-5pm). Best option bait wise is minnows, (Catch them with a bait trap or bait net from the pond itself.) night crawlers, 4-6 rubber worms, and rubber grubs. Crappie spinners work well for crappie and walleye (larger spinners for walleye). I catch the most bass 5 inch straight worms (senkos) and 4 inch twirly tail worms on a small jig head. Fishing has gotten a little worse off the dock in the past 3 years. Overall great pond to fish with a family or friends and worth stopping by.
