About This Location

Webb Pond, located in the towns of Eastbrook and Waltham, Maine, is a stunning 915-acre pond renowned for its natural beauty and outdoor recreational opportunities. This picturesque pond is a hidden gem that offers a serene escape for those looking to enjoy the tranquility of nature.

One of the remarkable aspects of Webb Pond is its relatively undeveloped shoreline. Unlike some heavily developed waterfronts, Webb Pond maintains a sense of natural charm with a moderate amount of camps along its edges. This allows visitors to immerse themselves in a more pristine environment, where the beauty of the pond and its surroundings takes center stage.

Webb Pond is also home to the YMCA Camp Discovery, adding to the sense of community and outdoor adventure in the area. The camp provides opportunities for children and families to experience the joys of outdoor recreation and education in this scenic setting.

Access to Webb Pond is primarily through renting or owning homes along its shoreline. Many individuals and families are fortunate to have properties that grant them direct access to this lovely pond. However, for those who wish to explore Webb Pond and enjoy its offerings, there is a small public boat launching area located between several camps on the southern end of the pond. This public access point allows visitors to launch their boats and experience the pond's serene waters.

Fishing enthusiasts will find Webb Pond to be a fantastic destination. It is known as one of the best fishing spots in eastern Maine, particularly for white perch, pickerel, and smallmouth bass. Families looking for a day of angling action will not be disappointed. White perch, in particular, are abundant in the pond, offering a consistent and enjoyable fishing experience. Many anglers are pleased to catch white perch in the highly desirable size range of 11 to 13 inches.

Pickerel fishing is also excellent, especially during the ice fishing season. Pickerel caught by ice fishermen in Webb Pond often average an impressive 16.5 inches in length. The pond's diverse underwater ecosystem, with an abundance of crayfish, yellow perch, and white perch, provides a rich source of forage for these fish, contributing to their robust health and size.

Furthermore, Webb Pond has gained a reputation as a producer of large smallmouth bass. The rocky reefs and extensive boulder areas within the pond create ideal habitats for this species. Each year, anglers have the opportunity to catch reasonably good numbers of smallmouth bass weighing between 2.5 to 4 pounds, and these fish are typically in excellent condition. The ample availability of forage items, such as crayfish, yellow perch, and white perch, ensures that the bass thrive and achieve impressive sizes. Whether you're a seasoned angler or a novice looking to experience the joy of fishing, Webb Pond offers a diverse range of opportunities for all.
