McBride Pond is an 8-acre water in the Tupper Lake region — small enough that it rarely shows up on recreational lists, which usually means local knowledge and light pressure. No fish species on record with DEC, which could mean unstocked, unsampled, or simply off the stocking rotation; worth a call to the regional fisheries office if you're considering a paddle-and-cast trip. The acreage suggests a pond you'd explore in an hour or two by canoe, assuming you can find access — many of the smaller Tupper-area ponds sit on private land or require a woods walk from a nearby road. Check property lines before you go.
