Super User everythingthatswims Posted October 21, 2014 Super User Posted October 21, 2014 Here is a photo of some old bluegill beds that were 30+ yards from the waters' edge! I have never seen it this low, weird because a reservoir downstream of this one is full and water is dumping over the dam. Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted October 21, 2014 Super User Posted October 21, 2014 Yeah I went to this one pond I fish in the other day and the water was really low too, it was 3ft in the deepest part... Quote
Felixone Posted October 21, 2014 Posted October 21, 2014 I have run into this as well with a local pond I fish frequently. I was kind of annoyed at first, but I was able to use that time to "map" out some features of the pond I wasn't normally able to see. I have used this knowledge to help me catch fish when most people around me believe that it is near impossible to catch fish there. As a matter of fact I have now caught more fish from this pond than I have anywhere else. Of course as I am a new angler this isn't as impressive as it sounds given most people probably catch my lifetime total in a single day. As it turned out beavers were the cause of the low pond. They had setup a dam on the creek and the pond was draining out into another creek/pond. So even though it made for a rough day at first, it has made other trips more fun. Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted October 21, 2014 Super User Posted October 21, 2014 i went to a spot last thursday, water was way down. i just used the opportunity to check out all the newly exposed cover/structure. but like a fool i failed to really take down the details or even get some photos, could have really helped when the water is back up....
