Red_neck_LS Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 Heres the deal im going to be fishing theese ponds every morning from 6-noon. Theres ALOT of algae and trees laying over.. With the addition of quite a few large bass. I was thinking using a topwater like a buzzbait, and if that doesnt work using a t-rigged u-tail worm? Does that sound like a pretty good plan, or do i need to be doing something different? Quote
Will Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 Sounds like you are off to a good start. Some other baits to try would be jig/pig, fluke, tube, and maybe a floating worm. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted August 6, 2005 Super User Posted August 6, 2005 Definitely DO NOT FORGET to take some ZOOM super flukes.A ZOOM horny toad may do well near or over the algae.Pond bass typically see lots of frogs. Quote
northgabassfisher Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 try the wacky rig senkos watermelon w/blue or any other kinda watermelon color or the PoP-R never tryed a buzz bait on it .thats what works in my pond and yours sounds like the same as mine lots of weed beds and over hanging trees good luck to ya, Quote
Pond-Pro Posted August 6, 2005 Posted August 6, 2005 I would definetley try a moss mouse or frog on top of the scum. A buzz bait is a good bait for the edges of the weads. The Texas rigged worm is also a good bait to try. If that does not draw strikes switch to a 4 inch worm t-rigged. Fish right in the cover. Have fun! Quote
Red_neck_LS Posted August 8, 2005 Author Posted August 8, 2005 Well today ended my weekend of fishing theese ponds. Overall i think i got 13 bass. Some small some pretty decent. Largest one was about 3lbs.Pretty good for me. I changed my plan a bit and caught the majority of fish on a watermellon senko rigged weightless. I worked it right up against the weed beds and got some good action. I also caught some nice ones fishing the buzz bait right over all the weeds.. Well just thought id throw in an update. Quote
