Davignon Pond.
Davignon Pond is a small 28-acre water in the Great Sacandaga Lake region — quiet, off the radar, and typical of the mid-sized ponds that dot the southern Adirondacks without the traffic or infrastructure of the better-known destinations. No fish data on record suggests it's either unstocked or undersampled; either way, it's not a known angling target. The pond sits in an area where public access and trail information can be thin — worth a DEC land viewer check if you're curious, but don't expect marked trailheads or launch sites. This is the kind of place that shows up on a topo map and makes you wonder if anyone's been there in the last five years.
Davignon Pond has public access. Summits nearby include Clute Mountain.
