Adams Pond, commonly known as Rock Haven Lake, is located north of Route 11 in West Newfield. The Maine Department of Fisheries and Wildlife successfully introduced largemouth bass in 1967, and an excellent fishery now exists. An abundant population of juvenile perch and minnows provides an excellent forage base. Black crappies were illegally introduced in the early 1990’s and are now providing an important fishery. Crappies feed extensively on small fish and compete directly with the bass for food. Rock Haven is managed for warmwater fish species due to the lack of cool, well-oxygenated water available during the summer. Unscheduled brook trout are stocked occasionally to provide a winter or early spring fishery. Public access to Rock Haven Pond is available only by permissive trespass, since there is not a public access site. A traditional site, located adjacent to the outlet, is still available for canoe or carry-in access. Purchasing and developing public access to this pond is a priority of this department.
The ranking score is used to determine how "popular" a trip or location is. It is calculated based off of a weighted average of the number of reviews and the user ratings. For example, a location with 2 reviews and an average rating of 5 will have a lower "ranking score" than one with 10 reviews and an average rating of 4. This is because even though the first location has a better average rating, it has not been reviewed as much as the second location, so it is not as "popular". In the future we may modify the ranking score to take in additional factors, such as the number of views, comments, and photos.
