Lake Information for Horseys Pond

Both the number and size of bass in this pond have increased in recent years. The abundance of bass larger than 15 inches was higher than most other Delaware ponds and nearly twice the state average. Growth was average with legal length reached between age 3 and 4.

The total number of panfish was also very high, particularly bluegill. Generally when bluegill numbers are high, the fish tend to be smaller. However, nearly 200 bluegill over 6 inches were collected per hour of electrofishing in Horseys Pond. Black crappie abundance was also above average with some individualls up to nearly 12 inches in length. A few yellow perch were also observed.
