Great hollow lake in Monroe
Message:
Anyone ever fish this lake for trout? Please let me know if it's worth the trip from New Fairfield or if I should just stay home and go to Ball Pond. I have a small row boat and don't mind the lack of motors but want to find some new trout waters for slow trollin! Any suggestions in the Fairfield County area other than Ball Pond, Squantz, and candlewood lake would be appreciated. Not really interested in bass fishing much anymore.

there is a sustained population of brown trout in Pattaconk lake in Chester. good peaceful place to do some slow trolling. Rogers lake in Lyme is rumored to have a sustained brown trout population as well. If you are feeling adventurous... look into the Wachusett and Quabin Reserviors in MA. They have big salmon and lake trout. recently records as well. Wachusett only allows shore casting though :(

There's a small ramp for canoes, kayaks, and small vessels with electrics at Great Hollow. Great Hollow is a trout park where your limit is 2 of any size. Slowly trolling with small minnow and shad lures gets the trout to hit in the spring and fall. You get other fish in the mix such as CB, YP, LMB, S, and CP. Fishing season there ends on November 30 and then doesn't begin again til Opening Day. With Great Hollow being a trout park, it gets stocked heavily compared to most other places.
