Bullshark26 Posted November 15, 2014 Posted November 15, 2014 Hey everyone. I fish several ponds down here in fl and for the last 2 months I have caught one fish and the lure was bigger. I can't even get a bite. It's very frustrating because these are ponds that I have caught tons of fish in. Is anyone else experiencing this down south? Any tips you guys good give on baits and what not would be helpful. I have thrown everything and I have went at all times of the day. Thanks. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted November 16, 2014 Super User Posted November 16, 2014 My pond bite has gotten sour over the last week, I was doing quite well with it. As of yesterday I started catching more fish in the canals than previous. Quote

Out in the Everglades though different story all together. Quote

Just my two cents...I mainly fish my little neighborhood 2.5 acre pond (Cutler Bay) for the past couple years. And until the last couple months I caught vast majority of fish on the SE corner, now I am catching vast majority including 5 and 6 lbers on the NW corner. I am mostly using senkos, flukes and large worms. Based on my recent experience, I would say try to work areas that previously were not very productive. Good luck, and I hope you find the fish. Quote
I.rar Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Where is this pond in Cutler Bay if you don't mind me asking? I'm also in the area and have probably seen you on the water. Quote
CutlerJay Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Don't mind at all. I am in the Seagrape neighborhood (SW of Saga Bay), but I have also done well in the Lakes by the Bay ponds. Quote
Super User BassinLou Posted November 17, 2014 Super User Posted November 17, 2014 What's up Cutler Jay its been awhile!! Quote
CutlerJay Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Its been good lately. Doing some inshore fishing with my little boy and got out to Tamiami trail a few weeks ago. Fished the bridge mostly, wind was howling and made some nice little eddies behind the pilings. Caught a bunch of 1-2 pounders. Hoping to get out with my Dad over Thanksgiving. We may try the Big Cypress canal. Sounds like your doing alright in the everglades as well. We definitely need to fish together some time. Cheers. Quote

That's the gated community right? I'm usually at saga Lake Park with my little girl on the weekends. Caught my pb peacock and silver arowana there. Haven't checked out lakes by the Bay cause last I heard security was running off the people fishing. Quote
CutlerJay Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Yep its the gated community. I have had a little luck at saga bay, mostly small bass and a few smaller peas. Caught while my kids were swimming at the 'choo-choo train' beach, but I have heard great stories from that lake. I have not yet been asked to leave any of the Lakes by the Bay ponds, but I'm sure it will happen sooner or later. Cheers Quote
