At the start of Eldon Street off Rocky Gutter Street in Middleboro MA. Trip date is May 2014. On Tispaquin Pond. Just launched on Tispaquin Pond. Paddling to my right. I will circle Tispaquin Pond counter-clockwise. Now paddling northwards and will keep the shore to my right. Fishing from a boat. To the right of that birdhouse is the small northeasterly cove. This cove looks like a dead end. Continuing my paddle northwards. In front of me is the northern end of Tispaquin Pond. Continuing my counter-clockwise direction. I am looking for any interesting inlet or outlet to explore. This spot looks interesting . . . I paddled into it but did not get very far. It turns out this is an outlet stream blocked by a small beaver dam where I can hear water flowing out. Turned around and now looking south on Tispaquin Pond from the north end. Two men fishing on Tispaquin Pond from a boat. Three young men on a canoe on Tispaquin Pond. YMCA's Camp Yomechas on the shore of Tispaquin Pond. Landed.
