If you are a NAFC member and live in Mass., Please be sure to sign in here so we can all get an idea of how many members are in your state and what part of the state they live. Hopefully, you'll have enough members to start up a "State Chapter" and a "State Meet". Be sure to stop in the new post called "NAFC Massachusetts Chapter ???" and leave your thoughts & ideas as well as your questions. <!--graemlin:;)-->

I'm from Western Massachusetts. Do most of my fishing in NEw HAmpshire and Maine though. Saltwater for stripers, flounder, cod, anything that bites my hook, except maybe the dogs.

I live in the Boston area and mostly fish in the metro-Boston area: Jamaica Pond, Brookline Reservoir, Houghton's and Ponkapoag Ponds, the Charles River. I try to target largemouth bass and stocked trout, when available.

I will fish it all all but ice fishing that is
my local area is newton white's pond and dug pond killer bass walden is good if you can beat the swimmers in the mornning. I keep talking Hardy pond for bass in the last 5 years it has been reclamied monsters in there but you need a small jon boat or canoe. which I don't have
I also have a 20 ft ruuabout that I fish the harbor and outter islands "B" bouy for cod when the wheather is right I have had a bad year for strippers not even the schoolie's liked me.
I am allways looking for people to fish fresh waters with I know some good spots in my local area that are not well known but need a jon boat to fish them.
I am heading to NH lake winnie this week for vacation plan to do lots of fishing and boating
e-mail me if any got any ideas when I get back

i live in plainville, fish in taunton and hopkinton whitehall res for pike and bass i don't ice fish anymore but did manage to catch about a 5 lb beaver last year on a senko always looking for friends who want to fish

Hello, fellow anglers.  I live in North Attleboro and fish a lot of the small ponds and lakes around here up and down Rt 1(Hoppin Hill, Whitings Pond).  Borderland State Park in Easton/Sharon is a good spot for bass and good size pickerel (pulled a 29" 3.11 pounder out this past summer - see pic).

Turtle here.  Whithall in and the S.P. hopkinton. Ashland S.P., Sudbury, Nashua and assabet rivers are the usual stopin' grounds.

Trout in spring. pike as the water warms and bass thru the summer are the plan.

Just shooting out an open invite to the NE meet that happens at Lk George.  This year it'll be the weekend of may 10th.  This'll be my 5th year with 'em...I guaritee you won't regret the trip to fish up there n' hang with the people Ive met.

check the member meets section for contact info.  hope a few more Massers come up to show em how we do it.  hehe

i live in western mass just caught my personal best 9 lbs at hampton ponds

Nice fish, Kman!  What sort of trout was it - - a laker?  And what did you catch it on?

Do you do much stream fishing?  Personally, I'm partial to the Hoosic (Berkshire County), the Deerfield (Franklin County) and the East Branch of the Westfield (Hampshire County), but I'm willing to explore others.

no it was a largemouth, trolling a senko rigged weedless on an red offset shank hook(i do believe it makes a difference) in a belly boat , ive found trolling a senko is an awsome way to cacth fish , every now and then i let out about 50 ft of line and i get hits about 10 secs after i close the bale, they just swarm it, im still trying to post a pic of it but am having trouble

hey big dog flymaster and flymaser5. I am one in the same I

have been away for a while. what's been happening.

Hi All Ma Members

I just found this forum I'm from Somerville I do a lot of Lake and pond fishing all over the state. I caught my best last year at Harold Parker State Forest a 9lb bass on a palstic worm. I do all of my fishing from the banks hopefully this year I can get a boat.I think it's a great idea to start a chapter for Ma.

Please let me know I can be reached at  baccid@yahoo.com

Anybody from the Newton, Watertown, Waltham area that has a jon boat and is looking for a fishing buddy let me know. I know some good little spots for bass and trout. I am curently without a jon boat I am hoping to pic one up this spring. e-mail me

Hi Anglers

I am a local freshwater guy from Oxford and am the club President for the Central Mass BassMasters.  I wanted to introduce myself and am looking forward to getting in some open water.  Central Mass BassMasters is a new club and is open to anyone interested in freshwater fishing.  Our web site is currently under renovation, but will be up an running sometime over the next week or so.  Anyone interested in joining a club should contact me and I will be more than happy to give you all the information.  I fish all over Mass, but consider Buffom and Webster Lake my home territory.  Maybe i'll see you all on the lake.  Chat soon!
