Stoney Pond

Madison County, New York

moon phase
Sun times displayed in .
Stoney Pond, located in Madison County in the Town of Nelson, is part of the 1,469 acre Stoney Pond State Forest Area.

Because of its small size and high elevation, this is one of the first lakes in the area to ice-up and is a good early ice fishing location. However, the pond is located on a seasonal road that is not plowed, so on years of deep snow it can be hard to access. The pond is best suited for fishing from a kayak or canoe. There is some shore access at the launch site and along the dam. Panfish are very abundant but run on the small side, with few fish reaching 8 inches.
