Hey dudes...Just trying to get a list of spots going. Since the season is only a few months, I was thinking to shoot for maybe 2/ month???
Spots:
Eddy Pond - Auburn - Fished here a bunch of times, pretty constant action on the ice
Horn Pond - Woburn - Tons of different kinds of fish, usually get a bunch of salmon stocked each winter too.
Quaboag - Brookfield - Never fished here, but read a lot of good things about it
Somewhere in Hopkinton - Maspenock or Lake Winthrop - Winthrop will probably have more access because the parking is in the middle of the lake and its fairly round, as opposed to the long and skinny Maspy.
Chauncy Lake - Westborough - another spot I haven't fished but seems like a good bet
Spy Pond - Arlington - might be the odd Tiger Musky swimming around in there...
Let's hear some input!

I live right next to quaboag. It has a great reputation!
Honestly i have only seen some nice pike taken there but i haven't put in the time to catch one myself. It is hit or miss and mostly miss is the norm. But i have to say i'm going to keep trying.
Bartons cove on the conn. river has some nice pike too?
Good luck and i'll probably see ya out there.

A-1 is great. I'm looking forward to putting my kayak in there in the Spring. I live a mile from Eddy Pond, there always seems to be abig following there for hardwater season=>another place to kayak and fish weedless....monsters in there with very little summer pressure.
A1 is great but i would make this an early one, the back side / cover have issue with the O2 levels later in the season not sure if it's the shallow water etc.
Lake Winthrop in Holliston is nice, plenty of parking and access from both side of the lake.
Lake Chauncey in Westboro is a good spot although it does get some pressure. I have seen some nice bass and pike taken through the ice
Farm Pond in Framingham always a good bet again another pond the does get some pressure. Hold some really nice bass and picks.
Happy Holidays

I have fished Horn Pond a lot salmon and trout, also produces bass back out near the island.
I have fished spy pond a lot on the ice and caught my biggest musky there 36" through the ice. ( They love the pike shiners here)
Walden Pond and Whites pond are produces I go there every year and always had good luck.
Farm Pond is also another good pond I try fish though the ice there every year and caught some nice bass.
Just wanted to let you know my experiences with the ice fishing. I hope it helps and hope to see you guys out on the ice. "TIGHT LINES"
