Current Fishing Weather
Wind Speed and Direction
Wind Direction:
Wind Speed:
Wind Direction and Speed are one of the most important aspects for choosing a fishing spot. An offshore wind can help land-based anglers with longer casting distances, while an onshore wind will make kayak fishing safer. Often fish will also move to certain feeding areas depending on the wind direction. Check out the long term wind forecast at the charts below.
Fishing Barometer
Atmospheric Pressure:
Change since midnight:
Trend for next 6 hours:
Atmospheric or Barometric Pressure affects fish activity. The best fishing can be had on a rising barometer and also the time just before it is falling. A steady barometer in the higher ranges can also mean good fishing. A falling or low barometer reading without much change is usually not a very good time for fishing.
UV Effect on Fishing
As a rule of thumb, the higher the UV index, the deeper fish will move. Shallow water fishing is best done at times with a low UV index. When the UV is high, stick to early mornings, late evenings and shaded areas. The effect is less noticable in deeper water, but often a higher UV index can produce good results in the deep.

Fishing Overview Greenfield
Fishing in Greenfield, United States centers on a network of small lakes, farm ponds, and nearby river systems that give anglers consistent action all season. Most local waters are classic Midwestern-style fisheries: shallow to moderately deep lakes with weedy shorelines, woody laydowns, and a mix of mud and gravel bottoms, plus rivers with riffles, runs, and slower outside bends. Largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill, catfish, and seasonal trout are the primary draws, with bonus pike, walleye, and rough fish like carp and drum.
Spring is prime time around Greenfield as water temps rise into the 50s and 60s. Bass slide shallow to staging areas near coves, points, and emerging weed beds. Work 1/4–3/8 oz jigs with soft-plastic craws, weightless stickbaits, and small spinnerbaits slow-rolling just off bottom. Crappie and bluegill push into protected bays and around brush; tiny tube jigs or 1/32 oz marabou jigs under a fixed float excel. On rivers, look for smallmouth bass and walleye around current breaks—eddies behind boulders, bridge pilings, and outside bends—casting small crankbaits and 3–4" swimbaits upstream and retrieving with the flow.
By summer, vegetation peaks and Greenfield’s lakes become textbook weed-fisheries. Largemouth bass hold along weed edges, lily pads, and shaded docks. Early and late, throw walking topwaters, hollow-body frogs, and buzzbaits tight to cover. As the sun climbs, switch to Texas-rigged worms, jigs, or drop-shot rigs worked down weedlines in 8–14 feet. Panfish suspend off the first break; use slip bobbers to position small ice jigs or worms right above them. Catfish activity ramps up after dark; focus on soft-bottom flats adjacent to creek mouths and channel edges, soaking cut bait or stink bait on simple bottom rigs.
Fall brings a strong feed as baitfish move shallow and into creek arms. Key on wind-blown banks and points where shad or minnows stack up. Medium-diving crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and lipless cranks catch aggressive bass, while crappie school tightly around brush piles and vertical structure—ideal for vertical jigging with 1/16 oz plastics. On rivers, cooling water concentrates smallmouth and walleye in deeper runs and tailouts below riffles; slowly retrieve jigs tipped with minnows or plastic grubs along the bottom.
In winter, when safe ice forms on local lakes and ponds, Greenfield anglers shift to ice fishing. Target basin areas and the deep edge of weedlines for panfish using tiny tungsten jigs tipped with waxworms, watching electronics for suspended marks. Mid-depth flats adjacent to deeper holes produce winter walleyes and the occasional pike on set-lines or tip-ups rigged with live minnows. Keep movements subtle, downsize line to increase bites, and hop between holes until you contact a school.
Across seasons, success around Greenfield comes from matching techniques to structure and water clarity. Downsizing presentations after fronts, focusing on wind-driven banks in stained water, and working slow and low in cold conditions consistently improve catch rates in this diverse local fishery.
