Fishing in Charlton, Massachusetts, United States

JokeSing

This lake in Worcester has a big boat ramp parking lot enough to fit 20 cars. The boat ramp has a small dock alongside and the ramp itself is concrete and in good condition. There is a good amount of bank fishing by the boat ramp and by the two beaches on the opposite side of the lake (near Shore Park?). Beware though - the water depth by the bank around most of the lake averages about 2-4 feet. I took my kayak and toured most of the perimeter of the lake and although i was skunked for the 4.5 hr that i was there, it was a good time. Had a couple bites and saw several giant fish jumping out of the water. pretty crazy! I think your best bet is the northern most part of the lake where there is tall grass with nearby lily pads. That’s where i had a couple bites and saw 2 fish jumping out of the water. There are a lot of homes around the lake but at this time of the year the lake is pretty much all yours if you’re out on the water. I imagine it gets pretty crowded in the middle of the summer. I will definitely bring my bass boat here next time

Very good camp has worms at store but found out for 5 pound bass use live perch or get medium minnows from jts fly shop just 10 mins down the road you will catch tons of crappie pickerel and occasionally a bass tons of perch and bluegill but in the middle of the season there is no point of fishing for trout they won’t bite because everyone eats them if you catch a pickerel bring the to the store and they will give you a free candy bar but kill the pickerel first so it stops going through pain caught one trout here but snagged it over all very good camp and water
