Johnson Park, Collierville

[BryanBrown]

I've read some post about y'all fishing Johnson Road Park in Germanton, but was wondering if y'all have any luck at Johnson park in Collierville off Byhallia Rd. I've tried fishing the main lake by the water spray park with no luck... Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Never fished it, but my daughter lives in the neighborhood. I walk the trails a lot

and have never seen anything or heard anything interesting. All I see is kids fishing

for gills.

Thanks for the info RW, I remeber hearing about them stocking it with rainbow trout this winter so i figured it might be worth trying out.

My little secret honey hole. We have caught 3, 4, and I recently got a 5lber out of there. Lots of good bass fishing. All of them had never been caught before either. All were also released. If ya see me out there stop by and say hello. We fish this pond pretty frequently. I drive the big 4dr black jeep. Joe

What are you catching them on out there? I can't get a single bite over there by the water spray park, but I did however catch a couple smallmouths on the other side by the baseball fields.

Smallmouth?  In Memphis?  Let me know where.......  are you 100% sure they were smallies?

my mistake.. I meant to say a couple of small largemouths. The only smallmouths I've caught around here have been below the dam at Pickwick Landing.

We usually have good luck on crank baits.

Thanks, I'll give that a try next time.

Crank Baits work great and so does worms for me.
