To the dep, just kidding around with my comments. I do hope this fishery will bounce back in time. It seems that the biomass of yellow perch is high, hence them being stunted. Who knows maybe the bass are still there but I'm not a biologist and we had a very warm summer or 2 mixed in with low water and heavy ice snow pack so I'm guessing oxygen and low water levels did in the fish.
Judging only on past trips and low catch rates. Hope whatever is left in there had a good spawn.
I would assume the town of wallingford would have to get proper permits through the dep if it were ever to get stocked legally but I have a better chance of hitting power ball then that happening.
P.S. this pond is open to Wallingford RESIDENTS only.
