Ducharme Pond

The Pond at Wallum Lake is available to all club members, including family and junior members. 

Known simply as the pond at the Wallum Lake Rod & Gun Club, which invites kids to fish there for prizes each year in late May or early June.

The state's official maps show it as Ducharme Pond - after Ronald Ducharme, the man who helped make the man-made fishing hole, the guy known around Wallum as the "Fishin' Technician."

• Daily Limit of 4 trout per membership

Note: Please report catching any fish tagged with a WLRGC tag. The tag number, location of your catch, date, time, condition and size of the fish is essential in maintaining the health of our ponds and the stocking levels.
