Massachusetts Fishing Report – January 14, 2021
Hilltown Ponds are hot!
While the wait is on for winter to start behaving like it close to the coast, those seeking safe ice have been on the move. Should you decide that you simply can’t wait for neighborhood water bodies to cap over, point your ride to the valleys and the hills!
Massachusetts Fishing Report I was pleasantly surprised when David of
Merrimack Sports spilled the beans on a number of ice fishing options in the Merrimack Valley. First on the list was Millvale Pond which was producing good numbers of rainbows, bass and pickerel but the number which most stuck out was 7”, which was the average depth of ice! Other spots that have been producing are Plugs Pond, Rock Pond, Country Pond and Tuxbury Pond. In anticipation of what seems like an imminent lock-up of the coves of the Merrimack (again!), the shop is supplementing its “heavy” shiners (5”) with bigger bait for the pike that prowl there.
