I think that you should go to another spot. If you can catch fish at other spots, but can't catch them there, then maybe they sprayed pesticides there recently. None of the pads look healthy.

could be fertilizer runoff from those fancy houses...

Try and land an unweighted frog on one of those pads. Twitch it so that it causes the pad to move, but make sure the frog doesnt fall off the pad. Wait a few seconds and then pull the frog off the pad. Works really well (for me anyway).

You could try the same thing with a 4" unweighted worm.

T-rigged weightless senko. If there is fish in there, he'll bite.

jrward · 02-02-07, 03:52 AM

Can you get your hands on some live 3'' crayfish? Fish'um under a clear casting bobber, just off the bottom. You'll find out if there are bass in there. Also try a 4'' smoke tube, weightless, work it on top like a jerk-bait.

basschamp4 · 07-24-07, 12:29 PM

i would throw horney toads with all that grass that looks like a pefect frog pond

Have ya tried a carolina rigged golf ball ???

Bass'n'cast · 07-24-07, 08:52 PM

HAHAHA... Are you sure there are fishing in there many golf courses dont stock ponds. My local golf course has a huge pond with great cover but they dont stock it. well if all else fails ....dynamite just to see....just kiddin

I bet you money there arent any fish in that pond. It looks shallow as all get out, and it probably dries up during droughts. Golf Course ponds and farm ponds and other small ponds that dont see much fishing pressure are the easiest places to fish ever, you are almost 100% sure to get atleast one bass, and the odds of getting a hawg are very good. But the thing is, some of the smaller ponds dont hold fish, simply because they dry up. I'd suggest move on to a larger pond.

ironman · 07-26-07, 11:52 PM

I have caught about 3 in their....all pretty small but it takes about 15 tries their to get one....next time i will go for the frogs/toads.
thx to all for the tips.
