Hadlock Pond, also known as Lake Hadlock or Sunderland Pond,[1] is a small, private, man-made reservoir[1][3] formed on a tributary of Halfway Creek in the Town of Fort Ann[4] in Washington County, New York, United States.[1]
Constructed in 1896, the original dam was of earthen construction, or rock fill. It had a height of 29 feet (8.8 m), with a width of 850 feet (260 m).[3] The dam was reconstructed in 2005, only to collapse months later, flooding and damaging nearby property.[2]
The pond is owned by the town of Fort Ann, and is primarily used for recreational purposes.[3] The pond has a surface area of 220 acres (0.89 km2).[2]
Fishing
Fish species in the lake include northern pike, white sucker, brown bullhead, rock bass, pumpkinseed sunfish, bluegill, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, crappie, and yellow perch. This is a private lake in the Adirondacks and you must own property on the lake to access.
