At my local neighborhood pond i have been having lots of trouble. I have not caught a good sized bass for 4 weeks or so.
I think the bass are post spawn, but i am not too sure. Since it is a small pond, and exposed to sun alot, I figured that they cannot still be spawning cause the pond was at the 60 degrees spawning mark earlier.
Anyways, I have been using crankbaits, and alabama rigs and spinnerbaits for the last week with no success. I have probably cast 500 times each day with these, maybe 300 with the bama rig, but no success other than snagging a snapping turtle which was fun.
I cast in every direction (circle casting) but I can't seem to find them. I have tried the deepest part of the pond and some of the most shallow. The pond is about 2-2.5 square acres, and the max depth is about 6 feet. There is a fountain in the middle, and 10 feet south of the fountain is the deepest part of the lake, atleast i think.
