Norwood Pond is a popular spot on the Raquette River and can be quite busy.
On the other hand, the section of the river between Potsdam and Norwood is often forgotten because of the dams obstructing the river.
Canoes and other easily portaged boats are ideal to navigate this section of river where fishing pressure is light.
Smallmouths, walleyes, and northern pike are the predominate gamefish. In the spring Norwood Pond is a popular spot for bullhead fishing.
Canoe access to the river above the dam in Potsdam is available in the village near Clarkson Inn. Below the dam access is easily found at bridges, roadsides, and sites provided by Niagara Mohawk near their hydroelectric dams. Handicapped access and a boat launch are found at Norwood Pond |
