Fishing at Spot Pond in Stoneham, MA (Middlesex Fells Reservation)

Spot Pond Fishing Stoneham - MA

Beautiful spot, but definitely not what it used to be

Spot pond is a beautiful pond located at the Middlesex Fells Reservation. It’s waters are extremely clear, and the bottom is mostly rocks, with sand in some spots.

Over the past few years, Spot pond has been heavily over fished. It is / was home to some massive Largemouth bass, however, with plenty of fishermen taking their catches home, this has become a very challenging place to fish. Lots of pressure, and not a lot of game fish around anymore.

Spot Pond is beautiful, and still worth stopping by, throwing a couple of casts, or even going on the kayaks (even though they are expensive and you can’t bring your own), but to actually drive to Spot Pond to fish, it it probably not worth the trip anymore.

Fishing:

Fishing at Spot Pond, in Stoneham, MA (Middlesex Fells Reservation), used to be great. Fishermen were not to be allowed here, and when that ban was finally lifted, this place was a sure bet every time. Fishing here was awesome. There were tons of fish, some of the biggest Largemouth bass around.

Access:

Parking lots here, here, here (Stoneham Zoo access) and here. Private boats and private kayaks are not allowed, but their own kayaks are rented here.

Species of Fish Found: Largemouth Bass, smallmouth bass, rainbow trout, yellow perch and sunfish.
