Every named lake, pond, river, and stream worth fishing in the Adirondack Park — with the species you'll find, the access you can count on, and the regions they sit in.
Upper Lake sits in the Tupper Lake region — a 43-acre water that occupies the quiet middle ground between the town's better-known recreational lakes and the true backcountry ponds. No fish species data on record, which typically signals either light stocking history or limited angler reporting; local knowledge will matter here. The lake's modest acreage and lack of nearby peak access suggest it functions more as a local paddling or shoreline destination than a trailhead hub. Check with Tupper Lake outfitters or the local DEC office for current access points and any seasonal road conditions.
