  Access status is simply unknown for this water. The nearest mapped parking is half a mile away, so the last stretch is on foot. Fodder's Folly covers ground next to the water; its rules will apply on that side. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Larkin Pond at 0.6 miles is the sensible second choice.
