Taylor Pond is a reservoir in New York, United States, and one of the still-water destinations covered by WikiCatch's global fishing-spot directory. Lake fishing here generally rewards patient anglers who watch for cruising fish along weed-lines, drop-offs, and shaded banks.

Fishing Techniques

• For Yellow perch

  When perch are finicky, downsize your bait or lure and use lighter line to increase your chances of getting a bite. Focus on areas near weed beds or drop-offs as they often hold schools of perch.

• For Lake char

  Target lake trout in deep, cold water during the summer months, focusing on areas with structure or drop-offs; use a fish finder to locate schools of fish and baitfish.

• For Landlocked atlantic salmon

  Vary your retrieval speed and depth until you find what the fish are responding to on that particular day, as these salmon can be finicky.
