I don't have any intel on that pond but regardless, I'm sure you'll have a great trip. No shortage of panfish in that part of the state. Definitely something to look forward to over the winter.
I will be happy to send you to some good local waters and if you are interested you can borrow my canoe (with pontoons if you want) to get into some great waters... Most of the sunfish that I have seen on Tully are not that big, but I was not looking either.
As we have talked about before, all my Gills I get are just by-catch and when I fish The Chu I am not looking for gills, but I know there are plenty there...
I know they are not stunted...
near the stone church of Wachusett you can see bluegill bedding. I would recommend lake quinsig for sizeable bluegill
Been there. Sadly quite developed if I remember right, which reminds me of lakes out here in Indiana. I'll keep it in mind though!Ever fish South Pond (Quacomquasit) near Brookfield? It was regulated as a trophy brown trout pond when I fished it years ago, but not sure now. I caught and released one brown their trolling about 15 inches. Marked schools of alewives that were so thick they blackend my screen, and was nailing large crappie (calico bass) at night while I was fishing for trout in deep water with a slip bobber rig, shiners, using a lantern. The crappie were so big I thought the heck with the trout. I still have one mounted on the wall in my studio. On a funny note I knew I was in trouble when I pulled into the private campground there, when the trash totally missed the dumpster, and the owner's wife greeted me with no teeth. :wacko:And the alleged lake view was blocked by a small forest contrary to the brochure. There is a road there on the way to a bait store called Podunk Road. For those that haven't seen it I kid you not!
I fish south pond quite frequently. I have caught many nice browns there and it's loaded with alewives. yes quinsig is quite developed but you can find big bluegills usually suspending around the 290 bridge or probing the shoreline on the southern end of the lake.
