dsaavedra 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2007 well i hardly ever take my fly rod down there anymore. mainly because its a pain to get down there and i need a new leader adn none of the flies seem to work. i think what it is is its such a small pond that the commotion of the heavy fly line hitting the water scare them all away. its much easier and effecient to just bring my ultralite combo down tehre. now that thers minnows ill try some clouser minnows....they are still heavy enough for me to cast on my ultralite gear.

dsaavedra 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 WELL GUYS...GOOD NEWS!!!! we FINALLY got bass down there!!!! three bass...not much but i finally got travis to put bass in....he wanted something different than bluegills down there. i know its not much but now that ive got him to put some in we can go bass fishing and put some more bass in there. one of the bass was a whopping 19"!!! another a not bad 15" and the third a decent 12". the big one just kinda sat on the bottom right where i released it....it wasnt dead, but wasnt moving either. the other two swam off slowly. sadly one bass died in transport.....luckily it was the smallest of the 4. :nopity: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
panflyfisher1 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 try a black spider. pure black. i catch more fish in black than any other color in murky water. i dont know why it just does. i think it just makes a more natural sillouet in the water. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danathan 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 you might want to build a structure like a tiny crib to go in there for the bass.and can you see to the bottom and if you can pay attention to were the bass hang out. another good lure is the orginal rapala, a nail with that. just stock the :devil2: out of the pond with bass and soon you can start little fishing tournements with a 20$ addmision fee. thats what i do to my pond and had several ameture tournements already.put a lot of bait fish to like roches or you can go to the hathchery and get some shad to put in there. :yahoo: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsaavedra 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 lol!!! :hyst: :hyst: :hyst: no i cant see wher the bass hang out . and there is already plenty of wood cover for the bass to hang around. i will try a floater as that would dive the perfect depth for this pond.

danathan 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 perfecto!(i think thats french) just use a frog kinda thing and drag it over the wood cover. or texas rigs with a 6 or 4 inch black and red worm, thats my best plastic worm( i won a tournement on a local lake with the texas rig with that color)and still try to stock the :devil2: out of it to with bass,i caught a 6 pouner yesterday in my pond and twelve 15".

dsaavedra 0 Report post Posted June 24, 2007 nice. well how big is your pond. mines a triangle and only the lower half of it is fishable and the whole thing is 2,500...if i did the math right. its got a base of 50 and a height of 100 so 50x100=5000 divided by two is 2,500. so yeah its onlly 2,500 square feet.
