So I'm at my MIL's...and we got to talking about fishing....just took my son for the first time and we had a blast. She tells me of the 'pond' across the street....she lives in a national forest....but there's lots of private property on her street. Her family member who has long passed away owns the property across the street...and apparently there's a nice sized pond/lake that they whole family used to fish ...smack dab in the middle of the woods. Nobody's been back there in over 15 years! She showed me pics of huge bluegill and bass they used to catch.
Well, I trekked the 1/4 mile back there to check it out after scoping in on Google earth....it's still there! I need to return with a machete and my fishing gear soon...I'm pumped!
It's a long walk...if it were you...what would you take? Live bait? Lures? Fish the top? bottom?
looking for some guidance and a little good luck!Seems pretty stagnant, but i hope the fish are doing well! wonder if ponds like this can 'die off'
