About Sand Pond:
One of four, connected lakes that comprise Tacoma Lakes, Sand Pond is approx. one mile long and boasts the clearest visability at 30+feet.
The deepest part of the lake is 90 feet, and holds many brown trout. Other parts of the lake are great for large-mouth bass, pikeral and sunnies.
The State Game Commission routinely patrols the lake and issues costly citations to those who don't follow the published rules. Personal watercraft (Jet Skis) are allowed, but must be driven with courtesy and respect to the other lakefront residents and boaters. There is a public boat launch on the adjacent lake for your use. (CAUTION: The bridge clearance between the two lakes is approx. 6 feet high - so no tall boats will make it under the bridge).
