SUMMARY :

It surprises me that Furnace Pond and Monponsett seem to have swapped places as far as productivity goes. What a difference water temperature makes in this pond. Remember my trip on April 6 at this same spot? In the same amount of time as today, I landed just one yellow perch in 39 degree water.
