i joined this site because i want some help finding new waters in my area where the fish are safe to eat. i live in norwood, ma. so, hello to everybody...i hope i can learn a few things here and maybe even make a new fishing/hunting buddy as well.

lately i have been fishing the neponset reservoir in foxboro. i do very well there not only with crappie but with yellow and white perch and large sunnys and redears. however, i remember reading warnings about eating the fish out of there....nasty pesticides/chemicals.

anyway, lately i have been salivating thinking about catching a mess for a fish fry, but im not sure of where i should go.

i have a row boat...no electronics or anything like that. generally, i troll a small spinner/grub combo behind me as i row out to the side of the lake where the wind is coming from. then, i just drift fish and let the wind push me back across, casting.

could somebody offer up a few locations near me, norwood mass, where the fish can be taken and eaten? perhaps a couple tips? thanks in advance
