Date: April 19, 2020 Body of Water: Fresh Pond - Plymouth, MA Moon Phase: New Moon - minus three days Boat: None, Shore fishing with waders With: Fishing alone, but accompanied by A and O Target: Stocked Trout Time: 1 PM - 3 PM Conditions: Too nice; clear skies and about 60 degrees, with a blustery south wind. A, O and I combined a little careful reconnaissance and sight-seeing with a couple of hours of fishing in Plymouth, Massachusetts' Fresh Pond. I'd picked this destination off the map by cross-referencing the list of trout-stocked ponds with a little Google-flying to confirm some public access. It was a successful formula! While I didn't tempt any trout with my Powerbait and lure (spoons, grubs and stick-baits) presentations, this was a scenic and restful spot to find and explore. The access at the south end of the pond does not seemingly facilitate casting into the lake's deepest waters, but the water is still cool, I was casting into over 10 feet of water, and I could have intercepted a trout. I'd prefer to return with my belly boat, and I may add this to my list of potential ice-fishing spots. It's not too far away, has reasonable access, and was peacefully quiet. From here, we continued by exploring nearby Russell Mill Pond and going to the Plymouth waterfront. This was all new to us, and we ended up having a nice day, even if I'd gone fishless once again! What do I have to say about this? So, What's up with NSCDA? The National Society of Colonial Dames of America, according to Wikipedia, is "composed of women who are descended from an ancestor 'who came to reside in an American Colony before 1776.'" Them dames might be redundant, but they sure know how to erect a memorial! Pondering the questions of core essence and finding meaning in unexpected ways
