Went to a new pond last night, well i had gone once before for about an hour, but didn't catch that day.  Had 3 rods with me with a spinnerbait, jig and wacky rigged senko.  My intent was to catch a fish on each and i nailed it!  2 on the wacky rig, 1 jig fish and 1 spinnerbait fish (a 3rd wacky fish jumped off right at the bank).  The jig was a @cadman head with a homemade skirt i tied up and a yamamoto craw which the fish nailed on the drop.  Spinnerbait was a war eagle with a homemade skirt and the deadly keitech swing impact for the trailer with a little JJs magic dip on the tail.

Really nice little pond with some decent cover and a big fountain in the middle of it so i think i'll be back ;)  But next time, i'm taking some bug spray with me, they nearly carried me off last night!

Failed to mention that the new rod was the Phenix Recon 683 ML casting rod.  Have the curado 51e on there with a new yumeya bfs spool with 8# yozuri hybrid.  Handled the wacky rig and the fish like a boss!

Nice. Pond fishing is enjoyable. Unfortunately, its hard to find enough "public" ponds around my area.

Same here, there are hundreds of retention ponds filled with LM, however they are surrounded by homes that the home owners swear they own and go nuts if you go between houses to access them. Every pond has a city owned buffer zone around them, but home owners swear you are in there back yard. I have had my 6 year old grand daughter with her Mickey Mouse rod and reel out catching and returning small blue gill only to have my backside chewed on by some urban sea hag stating I could not fish here. I was not fishing my grand daughter was, and it was all I could do to hold my Marine Corp mouth back in front of my grand  daughter so we just left.

trust me, it's no easy endeavor here...  it's why i was pretty stoked to find this one.  Security guard for this place went by last night and gave me a nice friendly wave so i was even happier about that!  granted there's no signs that say no fishing or no trespassing, but you never know!
