Pickerel Pond is a 14-acre pocket water in the Tupper Lake region — small enough to slip off most maps, quiet enough to hold that status. The name suggests brook trout or chain pickerel at some point in its stocking history, but current fish data is thin; if you're coming for angling, call the local DEC office first. Waters this size in the Tupper corridor often sit on private land or see minimal management — access and conditions vary widely depending on which drainage you're in. Worth a look if you're already working the area, but confirm ownership and entry points before you load the canoe.
