Summer is here and it’s time to hit the water! Swimming, kayaking, and paddleboarding are just a few of the activities that I am looking forward to this season. My family has recently been introduced to the sport of fishing and we have been researching local ponds, beaches, and rivers to find the best fishing spots in the state. I recently learned about Lake Chauncy in Westborough and this hidden gem looks like a great place to spend a day on the water.

Scenic Lake Chauncy is an 182-acre-long natural pond located near Route 9. Many people come here to swim or walk, but it is also a fantastic place to fish.

You can cast from the shore or drop a line from your boat. Excellent fishing can be found from both the north and south shores of the lake. A launch for small boats is situated on the northeast side.
