Dennis Pond Description
Dennis Pond is an acidic, infertile, 50 acre warmwater pond with a maximum depth of 18 feet and an average depth of 11 feet. Transparency is good, extending to 10 feet. The bottom is composed of sand around the shoreline and muck in deeper areas. Aquatic vegetation is common along the northern and southern shores. The 1.2 miles of shoreline are undeveloped. Access: Access to Dennis Pond is provided by the town of Yarmouth and is suitable for cartop boats and canoes. To get to the pond, take Willow Street north from Route 6 for less than a quarter mile, and take a right on Summer Street. The access is off Summer Street on the east end of the pond. Parking is roadside. Fish Populations: largemouth bass, yellow perch, chain pickerel, pumpkinseed, brown bullhead and golden shiner.
Dennis Pond is a fair perch and pickerel pond. Anglers casting spoons, spinners and submergent plugs, or fishing with live shiners, should find action from ample numbers of pickerel up to 20 inches long. The yellow perch are the most abundant species, and there are good numbers in the 8 to 9 inch size range. There are few large specimens of either species due to the acidity and infertility of the water.
