Bradley Pond is a 108-acre water in the Saranac Lake region — large enough to hold some depth and thermal stratification, but not large enough to attract the motorboat crowd. No current fish-stocking data on file with DEC, which could mean naturally reproducing brook trout, could mean the pond went acidic in the 1980s, or could mean the database is simply incomplete. The pond sits in working forest land with private shoreline — check the latest county tax maps or DEC access listings before assuming a put-in. If you're sourcing local intel, start at the boat launch registry in Saranac Lake village or call the Region 5 fisheries office in Ray Brook.
