This is where I learned to fish for bass for the most part. The pond goes threw cycles like most do. Have caught my PB here and my dad has caught his as well. The pond has been cleaned up around the launch and made easier to get into. But the towns attempt to better manage the water way has been poor imop. Best move to date was limiting the use of jet skis. I fish here ocassionally from the shore and about 3 times a year via boat. Still can kick out big ones due to it's herring run stocked trout and deep cooler water supply via the middle of the pond.
