Weweantic River Reservoir Fishing near West Wareham, Massachusetts

• Overview

  In Massachusetts, Weweantic River Reservoir falls inside Plymouth County. The water sits 72 feet up. At about 37 acres, a day is enough to walk the shoreline properly. West Wareham sits 2.1 miles from here and is the nearest stop. For a city, New Bedford is 16 miles off. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Weweantic River Reservoir

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Species logged across Plymouth County include tessellated darter, striped bass, bluegill, swamp darter and chain pickerel. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. At Weweantic River Reservoir light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 72°F; the cold one sits at 28°F. Seasons here are moderate, and the fishing runs most of the year. It is not guaranteed from one year to the next. Late winter often fishes better here than midsummer does. The season on Weweantic River Reservoir follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Failing this one, try Harwich Reservoir, 1.2 miles away. Nothing here settles the position at Weweantic River Reservoir for certain.
