Round Pond is a typical, small, kettlehole pond in a scenic
setting of spruce and white birch. To get there, take the Weir
Pond road from Rt. 6, the Lincoln-Topsfield road. There is a
boat landing.
Brook trout grow well in Round Pond. Apparently the only
other species established is pickerel and they appear to be doing poorly in this cold pond. Periodic stocking will be necessary to support the trout fishery.
To protect against tlle introduction of additional fish that
would compete for food and space with trout, we recommend
that use or possession of live fish as bait be prohibited. We
also recommend closure of Round Pond to ice fishing.
