Pimlico Pond is a small 14 acre natural kettlehole pond with an average depth of 12 feet and a maximum depth of 23 feet. Transparency is good, aquatic vegetation is scarce, and the bottom is composed primarily of sand. The 0.57 miles of shoreline is mostly wooded, with moderate development along the western shore. Access: Pimlico Pond is located between and a little east of Peters and Mashpee-Wakeby Ponds. From Route 6, take exit 2 and head south on Route 130 for about 4.2 miles. Then take a left onto Pimlico Pond Road. The access point is a ramp with paved to the water’s edge, suitable for launching cartop boats or canoes or for shore fishing access. A small roadside parking area suitable for a few vehicles is provided next to the ramp. Fish Populations: pumpkinseed, yellow perch, bluegill, largemouth bass and smallmouth bass.
Pimlico Pond is primarily a stocked trout water and is annually stocked in the spring with brook, brown and rainbow trout. The small size of the pond and its solid bottom allows even the shore-bound wading angler to reach nearly all depths and areas. All of the usual stocked trout offerings should prove successful, but as the water warms in summer, anglers will have to hit depths of 16 feet or more to find the action. Largemouth bass should provide most of the action during the summer months and during the ice-fishing season. This is an excellent pond to hit during windy weather (take note fly fishermen!) as it offers more protection than most of the other trout ponds in the area.
