Monday is the last day to rent a boat at spot pond, I've been dying to fish there from a boat. Im a serious bass guy. I got a day rate of $100. for 10 am till 6pm, My partner has to work and banged out on me. So $50. and split the rowing, ill try to sneak a small hummingbird on board. Dave 617 435 7979, or get a bunch of guys together, Ill get a deal for us all.
Sorry you feel like that, but $50 bucks isn't bad to some people. I'll spend over $100 tomorrow in fuel alone fishing a T in NH. I fish Barehill in Harvard MA, all the time. They have a ramp fee of $25 that discourages unserious fishermen, but that's good. We have a T there every May, 12 boats , all limits, lots of 4s, one guy w a 5/12 an6/3. 20 lbs total, easy 20 fish a day, no dinks
I agree w you 100%, I didn't mean to come off like that. I just get that idea of just trying it once, every year. I know some guys that have done the kayaks and got some nice 3-4 # smallies off the islands. Your right though, it's not like those boat rentals are sold out every week, a realistic price would make a big difference, monopoly too, hate that. Some competition would make it affordable, I would invest $ myself. Anyone interested in looking into it? Another thought , I went back yesterday , they are selling off all the kayaks. They all look beat , even though they are 1 yr old!!!! AND the prices are NO BARGAIN, about $100 less than buying one new,,, rip off. Another example of government running things inefficiently. I'll see Monday if they sold.
Spot has big fish but you def need a boat to find them. I dont think you can compare it to Quabbin in any way.
I have a half dozen or so 5 lb plus out of spot and a 4.5 smallie. I would not doubt a 10 pounder in spot but dont get your hopes up. There are a few members here who claim 10's out of spot, but sorry I need proof when 10's are claimed. No doubt at all HUGE fish in there.
Good luck, report back to us how it goes.

I fish Spot after work all the time and on weekends but have only caught anything worthwhile after dusk. For some reason buzz baits and spinners drive the SMB in there nuts at night, but they bite at NOTHING in daylight. Which is problematic because they ticket you there at dusk. I'm dying to take a boat out there but won't out of spite because of the absurd prices.
