Woods Lake sits in the southern Adirondacks near the Great Sacandaga Lake reservoir system — a 70-acre pond that holds its own water and its own quiet in a region better known for the engineered shoreline to the south. No fish stocking records in the DEC database, which usually means brookies or holdover bass that nobody's bothered to survey, or it means the lake doesn't connect well and winters hard. Access details are sparse in the public record; this is one of those waters where you either know the local road in or you're driving past it without realizing it's there. Worth a call to the town clerk in Edinburg or Northville if you're planning a trip.
