If you love the outdoors and you love to fish, you may want to plan a trip to Brewster Massachusetts. There are more than three hundred sixty ponds. Brewster has some of the best fishing Cape Cod has to offer. Nickerson State Park, Baker Pond, and Sheeps Pond are three popular spots that attract fishermen from all over.

The Nickerson State Park is open all year round. It has four stocked ponds that are restocked very fall and spring with state raised trout. The variety of trout include brown, rainbow, and tiger trout. It is not unusual to catch largemouth and smallmouth bass as well as yellow perch in these ponds. It is good to know that while the park is open all year the roads may not always be plowed during winter month. It is a good ideal to plan for this during the winter.

Bakers pond is a endorsed fishing spot. This pond is situated in an area that limits access to the area and has limited parking. The best way to catch fish in this area is by kayak or a small boat. The pond is stocked with largemouth bass every year. Early spring and late fall is the best time of year to fish in these waters.

Finally, Sheeps Pond located in Brewster features a striking boat ramp and plenty of parking. Gas powered motors on the pond are limited to 3 horsepower. This is a terrific spot for slow trolling for a variety of species of fish. Because the water is so clear you can see down ten feet. During the summer this spot can get pretty busy so you will do well to get started early.

Three kinds of bait are recommended for freshwater pond fish. The three types of bait include night crawlers, power bait, and shiners. You can use bobbers with the shiners to help keep the bait in the spot where fish will strike. Power bait is dough like and soft and floats on the top of the pond. It is used for catching trout. Night crawlers are also used to catch trout and usually injected with some air to make them float.

Because trout tend not to get spooked when the light is low, before the sun comes up or after it goes down is the best time to fish. In low light trout swim close to the shoreline looking for an easy meal. The human benefit is that this part of the day is a very quiet time and great for relaxing.

Brown trout are known to be night feeders. When the temperatures get warmer during the summer months, the trout will move to deeper water. To improve your chance of catching them, use a small boat or kayak to get out to the deep part of the pond.

There are so many other ponds that can be visited in Massachusetts. Although only three areas are mentioned, it is well worth looking into what other ponds are ideal for fisherman. With so many ponds folks will never run out of terrific areas to fish. Next time you are planning a trip consider this great state.
