Hello all,
My folks are going to the Berkshires for a couple of weeks during October. My wife and I are going to visit for a few days and I figure between her and my parents I've got to go out and find some fishing for some fresh air!
The place is very north in Pittsfield, apparently the "Brodie Mountain Area". The actual accomadation is off of Brodie Mountain Rd. between Routes 7 and 43.
It seems there is a stream that runs parallel with the road, don't know how you would fish it - if it's the type of area you can park and walk or if it's heavily wooded or steep. I also see some big lakes somewhat nearby but I cannot judge distance with maps. Then of course numerous non-labeled ponds.
Any advice on streams, lakes or ponds with minal travel and moderate access would be extremely appreciated. I like the looks of brook fishing as I don't mind targeting Trout. I am a Carp fisherman however so I'm not really looking for any Bass water. Pike are good though... I thought I heard back when that there was good Pike fishing in the Berkshires... but I can picture some snow maybe in Oct but no ice yet.
Thanks all.
Ed
