The derby will start at 7 a.m. Breakfast will be available at 6 a.m. Numerous prizes will be available for the largest trout in each class. The pond was recently stocked with trout and should make for a great day in the outdoors.

Four-pound-plus browns were caught back in the ‘90’s, when the lake had a good population of alewives in them. Smelt were also stocked along with smelt eggs, but did not do well because of the acidity of the water at that time. A small group of local concerned citizens applied for and received a large application of lime by a company called Living lakes. Acid rain at that time was a big problem then, and still is, although it is rarely mentioned in the news. Prior to the liming of Wallum, the state would not stock rainbow trout because of the acidic water. After the liming of more than 30 years ago, rainbow trout are stocked annually at Wallum lake and do very well. Hopefully, the state will spend a few bucks to reintroduce alewives back into Wallum so that local anglers can once again catch four- plus-pound trout again! Many anglers enjoy catching some of the 12 to 16 inch trout which are stocked annually, but is a lot of fun to catch a lunker trout once in a while. With the loss of the brood stock salm- on program ,improving fishing opportunities at Wallum with big brown trout is long overdue. Wallum is called the “ Little Quabbin” by many serious trout fishing anglers, and they deserve to have a few bucks set aside, to improve the lake’s lunker trout back to what it was 30 or so years ago. It can be done! The Good Old Days. Wallum Lake is an interstate body of water. Both Mass. Fish & Wildlife and Rhode Island Fish & Wildlife were suppose to work together to make the lake a trophy brown trout body of water, but were unable to work together and the sportsmen were the losers!
