Wondering if any of these are legal to fish. Theres a bunch of beautiful looking lakes in the Woodbridge, Bethany, Naug. area.

Old Naugatuck res.
New Naugatuck res.
Lake Bethany
Lake Chamberlain, i know this ones part of the saltonstall deal
Lake Watrous
Glen Lake
Lake Dawson
Konolds Pond

Of this list are we allowed to fish any of them? I remember driving buy a few of them along time ago and think i remember the little yellow signs that i hate so much.. But cant remember which was which. Any help would be great.

Chamberlain is legal to fish with a $20 pass for saltonstall.

If bluefish were the size of bluefin, I would poison the whole ocean.

Reminds me of my younger years on Cheshire Res. I know now they probably knew who I was, but back then, I ran away thinking I beat them every time. The game changed though when I became an adult and realized I was going to get a little more grief if I got caught. Man, I miss fishing that place! 30 inch slime darts were an every day thing, huge largies, and 16 to 18 inch crappie!!!! I even caught a 4 plus pound catfish in there on a bass plug.

It is only when you see a mosquito landing on your testicles, that you realize that there is always a way to solve problems without using violence ...

I have fished Konolds out of the kayak twice and caught several largemouths and pickerals on each trip. I think the bucket brigade hammers this pond from the only accessible shoreline spot...
The pond is fairly shallow (max depth around 8 to 10 feet). The interesting thing is that there are signs warning that the taking of alewives are illigal, so I assume the alewives run up the west river into the pond to spawn.
