Warner Pond.
Warner Pond is a six-acre pocket water in the Great Sacandaga Lake region — small enough that it likely sees more pressure from locals who know it than from passing traffic. No fish species data on record, which in this part of the southern Adirondacks can mean anything from a quiet pickerel pond to a seasonal wetland depending on the year's water table. The Great Sacandaga shoreline is a patchwork of private land and old logging roads, so access here is a question mark without local knowledge or a county tax map. If you're fishing the Sacandaga system, this is a detour for the curious, not a destination.
Warner Pond has public access.
