hey guys, im out in amherst dying to get on the water and my usual spots are all still completely frozen. anyone know of any open water around here so i can get my fishing fix? thanks.
Lake Boon in Hudson MA is still covered in ice...but there are some local lakes in the Marlboro/Framingham/Hopkinton area availible to fish. These cold nights are setting us back though.
thanks volume, i'll check those out. is there fishing from the shore there or do i need the boat? i broke my arm last week so the boat is off limits for now.
Ouch! I've never fished either spot, but I've read lots of good stuff about them (I did a lot of research for ice fishing them, but never made it out there). I'm assuming you'll need a boat for most parts of the river though...check google maps satellite view or thiere is a Mass Wildlife pond map for the Oxbow, I think it's called Oxbow Pond or something like that, Northampton.

Sorry bout the arm, Oxbow is not far from you if you are near rohunta.
There is a park there but i'm not sure what it's like from shore. Try quabin fishing area 3 on map. I have seen some big fish come from shore at that area.
