pondbassin101 Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 So a buddy and I are going to hit these ponds for about 2 hours tomorrow, and I was hoping you guys could provide some suggestions on what lures to use. These ponds are situated on what used to be a gold course and I've only ever seen one person fishing there, so I don't expect a pressured fishery. I was thinking a t-rigged craw or worm on a spinning rod, and a squarebill or spinner on a caster. Open to any other suggestions. 1 Quote
MichaelCopeland Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 If it's not very pressured, you should be able to throw just about anything in there and get a bite. However being fall time of year, you may try squarebills or lipless cranks, topwater baits and swim baits. If those don't work, just throw different baits til something works. Good luck! ? Quote

Yeah I was thinking of starting off with squarebills and then moving on to topwater closer to sunset. Like I said, those ponds have pretty much 0 pressure. I know the owner of all the ponds and property so getting permission to fish there wasn't a problem. Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted October 18, 2017 Super User Posted October 18, 2017 Jerk baits, poppers, squarebills, swim jigs, senkos. those fish are usually not hard to catch, but sometimes they are keyed in on a particular forage. Quote
tander Posted October 18, 2017 Posted October 18, 2017 I agree since they have not been pressured, they should bite most anything. I would probably start with a chatterbait. Quote
