Island Creek Pond, Duxbury
My brother and I took our 14' aluminum out at sunrise. Winds were light out of the WNW, barometric pressure was approximately 29.75, and sky was mostly clear. This pond is very shallow, with a maximum depth of about 7', average depth is 4'. The bottom of this pond is silt and thick Eurasian Milfoil. In fact the town owns a machine that cuts the milfoil and dumps it on shore. If they didn't do this the pond would completely choke out. Fortunately though, the bass fishing is quite good. On this trip we didn't get any big ones, but we caught alot. About 30 bass total between the both of us. We texas rigged worms, no weights, and lots of scent which we felt was the key for the day. You can get bass boats in here, but more suited to smaller crafts. I've seen a few 6 pounders taken from this pond, and numerous 3 and 4 lbers. Good numbers of pickeral, crappie, and yellow perch. Fun place to go if you just want some steady action.
