Forge River Description
The Forge River is a small river in the village of Raynham Center (CDP), within the town of Raynham in southeastern Massachusetts. It flows south from the Tracy Corner neighborhood and into the Taunton River. The numerous types of trees mixed with the golden brush, create a colorful pallet second to none. Many maples reach out over the river, their brilliant foliage reflecting in the water. Half a dozen species of oaks are here too, including several gigantic swamp white oaks. There are groves of beeches, birches, pines, and hemlocks, and a great many hickory and walnut trees. The free nuts are another bonus on fall trips. Fall is the time for seeing the relatively rare tupelo or blackgum tree also, for then its leaves turn a fiery scarlet. The Forge River is a fascinating site for the adventuresome angler to float-fish via canoe or kayak. The River offers a chance for solitude and the possibility of catching all sorts of fish while floating a sheltered scenic waterway. Fly fishing out of kayaks has become a very popular.
