trout waters

where the hell are all the trout? where can i go for decent trout fishing in central/metro west MA?

Check masswildlife.com, they post all the trout stocked waters in the state plus when they release them

While most of my experience is in more shallow bodies of water fishing for Bass, I have begun to explore some different fishing environments targeting different species. I have been visiting Sheep Pond in Brewster on the cape, They stock this lake with several varieties of trout and salmon, twice a year. The lake at its deepest is about 60 foot, much deeper than what i am accustomed to. Does anyone have any recco's for the best way to pull some of these trout out of here? I have not had much luck to date, but will persist- the trout, they will be mine.

Thanks,

Jay

hey,i fish the swift river in belchertown,ma.the winsor dam you mention i assume is the one at quabbin res.i fish on the other side of rte.9.it's called hatchery hole.i have learned that the smaller the fly the better.i use a 3wt.7'6" fenwick, 8x tippet and a 28 or 26 fly.i never get skunked.contact me if you would like any more info.

How do you even *tie* 8x tippet? I'm all thumbs with 5x...
