Upper Hall Pond is one of the designated trout ponds in the Sandwich Wilderness of the White Mountain National Forest. Upper Hall and the companion Middle Hall and Lower Hall ponds make a fine triumvirate of trout ponds for fishing. While Middle Hall and Lower Hall are remote ponds, these ponds are governed by general law regulations; all methods with a limit of five fish or 5 pounds.

Upper Hall Pond can be accessed by four wheel drive vehicle. The road has deep washouts, so it is advisable to not try and take a standard vehicle to reach the car top boat launch. At the launch, there is one of the regulation signs that were donated thanks to Trout Unlimited funds. Upper Hall Pond is a Quality Trout Pond with restrictive regulations. All trout from 12 to 16 inches must be released immediately. The daily limit on trout is two fish and only one may be over 16 inches.
