Ten Mile Pond

Anglers know Ten Mile Pond as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Ten Mile Pond is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.

Fishing Techniques

• For Brook trout

  Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.

• For Brown trout

  When fishing streams, focus on seams and current breaks, where trout hold to ambush prey.

• For Atlantic cod

  When using jigs, impart a strong vertical jigging action close to the sea floor, pausing occasionally to entice strikes.
