Welcome! If you are after smelt, they are there. Have got them right in town at the outlet into the Clyde River.

Check out my friend's youtube channel for some tips:


As for walleye, I think you might find an older thread on here about them in Island Pond.

Looks like that video link doesn't work?

I've only fished it a couple of times and all we've caught is pickerel and perch.

All in the 20-24 inch range, bite was slow but it was a great time, you can drive anywhere you want, tons of ice!
