Goin' to the pond!

[OKie]

The air temp is about 92 degrees so the water temp will be pretty warm. I have not fished it in about 5 days so the bass should be ready and willing to bait. The pond is only about 4 1/2 feet deep. There are fallen timmber and alot of top water and under water moss (snot moss). I'm not sure how many more tiki sticks i have left but i have about 200 plastic powerbaits worms, lizards, craw fish, and other soft bait from about 15 years ago. I'm thinking of doing the same thing i got the 12 bass on that one night. But i dont have many tiki sticks left. I will have to use the bait I got from a buddy on a different message board. I think that i will thro the plastic baits first, and then when it starts to get dark around 8:00-8:15, I will switch to buzz bait. I'll leave the house around 6:00. Please help because i have so many plastics that i filled up my little BPS tackle box with them and now i had to put all the hold baits in an old tackle box. I have 2 tackle boxes and i ride a bike to the pond. I'll have the buzzbaits with me in the soft plastic box. Will the buzz baits be good or should i try something different out of my hard tackle box?

Try a jitterbug or a pop-r also if you have them. Since the pond is shloow topwaters should be good just make sure to pack a jitterbug or something so you can stop it so they can check out the goods before they slam it.

[OKie]

I dont have a jitterbug. :-/

[hershey]

Any topwater hard baits like popers or spooks??? Just any topwater hard bait.

[OKie]

i have a top water grass hopper popper and i have some baits that can be a top water or a crankbait.

[hershey]

What i this topwater/crankbait you speak off ??? ????
Do you mean shallow water cranks??? I guess there worth a go just twitch em kinda on the surface. Crank baits are good fish producers anways.

[OKie]

Its a crankbait that sits at the top of the water that you can reel fast for a crankbait or just jerk for a top water.

NJ,

Let me know how those crickhopper poppers work, I've considered them for awhile now. Rebel makes some alright lurs.

NJ, that is a floating hard jerkbait 8) Â*do your self a favor...and get a big black jitterbug......talk to powerbass...he is gunna work a deal with me on a big black jitterbug...see if he can get you one to. 8)

[OKie]

I left the pond early today. I got 3. Nothing big. The bugs were bitting me up! I couldnt stand it i need to get some OFF!

[coolman]

Make sure not to get any of the OFF on ur lures or worms cuz then no fish will bite it!!! Just wash ur hands then spray some garlic spray on the lures to try to cover up the scent of the off

[Bassin_Dude]

actually you dont need scent to cover the smell up.....just wash the lures in the sand in about 6'' of water....that sand gets any smell off. 8)

Hey thats a less messy idea, Great
