fishing user avatarOpAnglers reply : 

Any pond fisherman out there?

 

I know that most people on here fish in lakes but I'm assuming a large number also fish in ponds frequently!

 

Here are my top 5 pond lures

 

#1- KVD Squarebill's (Craw color or black/chart)

 

#2- Wacky Worm (Senko's) (Green Pumpkinseed with Flecks)

 

#3- Blue and black jig with Craw-like trailer

 

#4- Spinnerbaits- all colors (Strike King)

 

#5- Craws/Creatures/Worms Texas-Rigged (All colors/Different Brands)

fishing user avatarDocNsanE reply : 

Is there a reason this list would be different from what you would use on a lake?

 

I haven`t really fished any ponds but most of these lists sound like what are my preferred lures on a lake.


fishing user avatarDirtyDeuceGoose reply : 

I use a Booyah Pond Assassin spinnerbait on good size lakes and catch decent fish, I imagine they would be king in a pond! (Or so Booyah would have us believe! :fishing1: )

Other than the texas rigs that can be used anywhere , I did not list any offshore structure baits .  I am targeting   mainly weeds and shoreline cover  in ponds .

I guess that makes sense... and since I don't do much offshore structure fishing, it would explain why my list matches up. Only offshore fishing I tend to do is weed lines and I'll use a lot of the same lures for that.

5. Frog
