4/16/10 - Crystal Lake - Newton, MA

Well this is my first time fishing this body of water. Only had 30 minutes of fishing(about 7:20pm to 7:50pm). Definately a small place, Not much parking(only on some side streets). Looks like its got good water clarity. Pretty cold tonight, but with no rain at the time I had to take advantage. I only brought 2 rods(Rooster Tail, and and Small Jerkbait). Got a few nips at the Rooster Tail, but no takers, so I switch to the Jerkbait and the Panfish couldnt stand it. Finished up the night with 2 healthy Blue Gill, 3 Yellow Perch(including my biggest to date@ 12-1/2in 9oz), and 1 Calico Bass(also my biggest to date@ 13in 13oz). Definately will be back to check out this spot and the couple other areas that are accessable to public. It was recently stocked with Trout, and if the Bass are anything like the Panfish, It will be very nice.

  • Very nice place although the shore access is limited. I assume you were near the wall or beach area? You'll notice that it's very shallow where there's good shore access. I've been there a few times during the summer when the water is crystal clear but it was during the day. A boat would definitely be ideal.
