Golden Reservoir Number 4 is one of several small impoundments in the Old Forge water supply chain — functional infrastructure more than destination fishing, and the "Number 4" in the name tells you everything about its original purpose. At 33 acres it's compact, wooded, and not heavily advertised for recreation; no fish species data on record suggests it's either lightly stocked or managed primarily for water quality rather than angling. Access and use policies for municipal reservoirs in the Adirondacks vary — some allow shoreline fishing or non-motorized boats, others are posted — so check with the Town of Webb or Old Forge water district before launching.
