| Location Details: | Uncharacteristic of ponds in York County the shoreline surrounding Alewife Pond remains undeveloped, except for the presence of a single camp near the outlet. This shallow weedy pond provides excellent habitat for listed principal fisheries and offers a truly unique "wilderness" fishing experience in one of Maine's most densely populated counties. Although a small band of cool water occurs on the bottom of Alewife Pond, this area is deficient in oxygen during the late summer months. Competition from warm water fish and unsuitable summer water quality effectively limit opportunities to manage for coldwater fish. Although Alewife Pond is best managed for existing warmwater fisheries, experimental stocking of legal size brook trout were undertaken in 1999 to expand winter and spring angling opportunities in this heavily populated region. Public access is available across property owned by the Kennebunk Land Trust which is located off the.Cole .Road. A small parking area is located just off the Cole Road, providing enough space for several vehicles to park. Anglers must walk approximately 1 mile to reach the pond from the designated parking area. |
