Green Pond.
Green Pond is a 29-acre backcountry water in the Tupper Lake region — small enough to feel remote, large enough to hold a solo paddler's attention for an afternoon. No formal fish records on file, but that's the story with a lot of interior ponds that don't see regular stocking or survey attention; local anglers know what's there, or they bring their own assumptions and a spinning rod. Access details are sparse in the official record, which usually means either a bushwhack or a local-knowledge approach from an unmarked trailhead. Worth checking DEC's online database or stopping at a Tupper Lake outfitter for current intel on how to get in.
