Urban Fishing

This may sound weird but I love the thrill of having to think outside the box for situations . Granted I am in the automotive industry and I get stuck with more than my fare share of problem childs with different cars and get involved to fix cars that have been shop to shop . I routinely search out your looked over places in busy or just plainly looked body of waters , streams , creeks , beaver dams etc . Yesterday I went to a local storm water run off and had really good success in the dead heat of the day . It started slow changing baits , sizes , colors etc to try and get a bite  . Then I thought I was getting over heated and shade was getting scarce minus several  drainage tubes from a business parks at different ends of the pond . I switched up to a finesse jig and zoom trailer and began skipping the jigs way back into the tube and then  one by one began winching out nice fat largies . My questions to you is what is something you do that is different , or  you don't see everyday or go somewhere thats overlooked that seems to produce when other more popular bodies of water are slow and dull ?

Much of s/e Florida is urban fishing, not only freshwater but tidal water as well.  There are ponds in industrial parks that can really be good and canal fishing even from shore can offer a wide variety of fish.

Urban fishing is lots of fun, the weird looks you get from everyone, the shopping carts and bicycles, and other junk that actually hold fish, but the best part is when you find a place that everyone overlooks...I found a pond behind a factory in North Myrtle beach, and it seemed basically untouched even though there were houses bordering one side of it. We caught the same 22" largemouth 3 days in a row, and they weren't on beds (we didn't target it). That sounds to me like that fish hadn't seen too many baits before

I keep a back up rig in my vehicle I will pull over any where there is sustainable water source , bridges in very busy areas and so forth and absolutely have a blast catching nice size fish and people looking at me like i'm stupid .
