The Fishin's Good!

New England Game & Fish Magazine points out that Pawtuckaway is one of the New England water bodies to look to this summer for good fishing.

New England Game & Fish Magazine, New England's 2004 Bass Forecast:
New Hampshire has a healthy population of both largemouth and smallmouth bass, primarily in the lakes region around Lake Winnipesaukee south to the Massachusetts border.

The current management policy is to provide only the regulations needed to maintain numbers and quality.

Currently, there are no minimum or maximum length limits in place. The resource is managed primarily with creel limits, established season dates and the way bass can be caught. For example, a catch-and-release period between May 15 and June 15 has been in place for a few years, during which bass fishing is allowed with artificial lures and flies only.

...

New Hampshire bass fishermen should have no trouble finding plenty of opportunities... Pawtuckaway Lake in Nottingham... should not be overlooked.
