Here's one of my favorite sites when looking for new waters. Some of the reports may be out of date, and it doesn't include all the fresh water ponds and lakes, but you may find it helpful when looking for a change of scenery.

Here's a page for Lake Cochituate. It shows depth lines, access points, types of fish, bottom composition, structure, vegetation and other pertinent info. This one is ten years old.

Do you remember the Carling brewery that was in Natick or Framingham?

They had a tv ad which started, "From the shores of Lake Cochituate" with an Indian paddling a canoe on the lake.  

What you didn't see was that if the Indian had continued on another 50 or 60 feet, he'd have been in the middle of Route 9, which was just out of the camera's field of vision.  

That would have been in the mid to late 60s when we lived in Holliston.

Don't remember the ad. I grew up in Sherborn
