501.0. "hopkington resevoir and trout" by LEDS::CAMPBELL () Tue Oct 06 1987 17:58

    
              I'm looking for some info on Hopkington resevior(sp).
    	Can you use a boat with an electric motor ? If so directions
        to the ramp.I'm looking for trout but if things are slow I'll
        try some bassin. Good spots from shore or from the boat will
        be appreciated.
                         
                                THANKS
                                Dave C

Hopkinton where?  NH or MASS??

If it's Hopkinton Lake in NH, (aka Stumpfield), there's no trout...only 
bass, pickeral, kivvers, perch, and hornpout.

    re: .0
    	If its Hopkinton Ma. your talking about :
    
    	Yes - electric motors are allowed. To get to the launch ramp,
    	head south on Rt. 85 from Rt. 9 - about 4-5 miles down (right
    	over the Hopkinton town line) on your left you'll see the entrance
    	to Hopkinton State Park - go in the park and there are signs
    	to the boat ramp). I've fished a lot from shore on the side
    	of the lake which boarders Rt. 85 (on the beach) - A lot of
    	people fish where Rt. 85 goes over the lake. I also see
    	a lot of people trolling over in that area. (I've never
    	fished it in the fall so I can't help you with that)
    
    	Be aware! The last time I was there (In late August for some
    	windsurfing) - the water level was *very* low!
