The Pond is called Peck Pond and borders Thompson, Conn and Glocester, RI and the Counties are Windham, Conn. and Providence County, RI.
Physical features; 13 Acres with a maximum depth of 14 feet. Basin is manmade and a average depth is 4.7 feet. No fall draining on this moving water with a very pretty bridge to join the two States.
Known fish population: Largemouth Bass,Golden trout, Chain pickerel and red fin pickerel, brown bullhead, golden shiner, yellow perch, common sunfish and stocked salmonids, spring and fall.
Ice Fishing: This beautiful body of clean water is the first to lock-up in the Ocean State for early ice fishing. Use smaller shiners and pinheads along with your popular hardware for some great perch jigging sweetened up with a meal worm or dillie. Some days great for a hike or snow shoeing, cross county, snow shoeing or use the pinetree shade in the hot summer for a old fashion affordable picnic and a dip. Bathrooms in warm weather and a outhouse for winter use was open today.
