Default Re: Reservior near Bridgewater/Chimney Rock

I also live in Bridgewater (Stony Brook Drive off of Country Club Rd) and fish there several times a year. The best luck I have had was in the feeder creek on the opposite side from the parking lot and not the main body of water. Early spring (although not this one yet - freezing for cryin out loud) is the best time I've had. You can get through the growth because it's not grown in yet so the access is better. Bass are usually in the 1 to 2 lb range but I have caught a few in the 3 to 4 class. It should hold a good number of fish but it gets tough in the summer from what I have found. Plastics and top water frogs have worked well in the slop once the weeds grow in and weather gets hot. Only a few per outing but at least those off the top are fun. Never got out on it with a boat though.

Good luck if you try it out.
