Queen Sewell Pond Description
Queen Sewell Pond, also known as Bumps Pond, is a small, infertile, 18 acre warmwater pond with a maximum depth of 24 feet and an average depth of 10 feet. The water is clear (transparency 10 feet) and infertile, the bottom is predominantly sand, and aquatic vegetation is scarce. The 0.6 miles of shoreline is moderately developed with permanent homes and a town and association beach. The pond is fed by groundwater and cranberry bogs and drains though an abandoned cranberry bog (now owned by the Town of Bourne) to Buttermilk Bay. Queen Sewell Pond is located about a mile northwest of the Bourne Bridge. From the Buzzards Bay Rotary, take Head of the Bay Road and then left onto Puritan Road. Access is provided by a town right-of-way at the northeastern end of the pond just off Puritan Road, or continue on Puritan to the first left (Cranberry Road) after Lewis Point Road, and then take a left onto Cherry Street which will take you to a town beach on the southwestern end of the pond. The access is suitable only for cartop boats and canoes, or for shorefishing. Fish Populations: pumpkinseed, white perch, bluegill, yellow perch, largemouth bass, golden shiner and chain pickerel.
Although nothing spectacular was noted during the last fisheries survey, Queen Sewell Pond has the typical suite of warmwater fish for the area. Due to its heavy summertime swimming use, the best times to fish the pond are in the offseason or in the early morning and evening hours during the summer.
