I had gotten one of those "fishing wisdom" type calendars a year or two back, and one of its "pearls of wosdom" was that if your favorite fishing spot is close to home, and easy to get to, than it probably has less than ideal fishing. In other words, to fully understand the art of fishing, you HAVE to get out of your "comfort zone".
I will, on occaision, pick a pond, or stream on a map and try to fish it. I have had some interesting results. For instance I found Trout Brook in Dover, Stony Brook in Weston and a remote stretch of the Shawsheen River in Burlington. These WERE all nice brook trout streams at one time.
(Don't worry, these spots have already been burned by Trouts Unlimited as well as New England Game and Fish magazine.)

As it has been mentioned earlier, most of the "crowd" will be inexperienced day-trippers that would NEVER think of fishing at night.
