What's working for your pond currently? 2025


fishing user avatarkwaldeier reply : 

I have yet to get out,sadly so I'm pumped to go soon and want to maximize my success rate. What has been working for you?


fishing user avatarStingray23 reply : 

Jerkbaits, weightless flukes, and keitech and strike king swimbaits have been killer for me so far.


fishing user avatarBankbeater reply : 

Small swimbaits, crankbaits, and lipless crankbaits have been working around here.  I have only caught one on the bottom with a t-rig, and I pulled one out of the weeds with a jig. 


fishing user avatarhunterPRO1 reply : 

im throwing frogs and t-rig swimbaits with good success.

fishing user avatarBassWhole! reply : 

Everything.  Love this time of year.


fishing user avatarSam reply : 

Nothing is working.

 

They are  on their beds so I am leaving them alone until after May 1st, giving the water time to warm up into the upper 60's and low 70's.

KVD 1.5 and a Carolina rig with baby brush hog.


fishing user avatarsnake95 reply : 

Down here in GA ponds in the last week: paca craw and pink flukes and Keitech Swing Impact Fats on a weighted swimbait hook, plus a couple of aggressive but small guys up shallow on weightless dingers (males on beds maybe?).  Basically any plastic with moderate action; the common thread for success for us has been fish it slow.

Have you fished Forest Park lately? No clue where to go I would go to busch but I never have a whole day to fish it. Any suggestions on where to go?


fishing user avatarJtrout reply : 

Trigged lizards and chatterbaits 


fishing user avatarbma3 reply : 

I wouldn't necessarily call it a pond but rather a very small lake and I've been catching them on the ned rig and a spinerbait.

You can go pretty much anywhere out at Busch and catch little ones.  I haven't fished down in Forest Park in years.


fishing user avatarthe reel ess reply : 

Lately, everything I've tried because of the pond I've been going to. Gold spinnerbait, hollow bodied frog in the lilies, Chug Bug Friday evening. The Ned, Finesse Worm-weightless, Rat L Trap.


fishing user avatarJelvas reply : 

I rarely fish small ponds because the ones around my area are all highly pressured and heavely fished, beside that i´ve allways been more of a lakes and rivers guy. Butt wen i do make a small 2/3 hours session on one of them i allways find myself trowing the same things...  a Zoom Fat Albert Grub on a 3/8oz jig head and/or a Zoom finesse worm/Zoom Ultravibe speed craw on a T-rig! It may lead me to a dink fest kinda session most off the times butt i rarely get skunked and sometimes i do manage to trick a fattie...
