    Plastics for a pond

    I fish a nice pond near where I live. I mainly use cranks and spinners and have even caught fish using my own version of the F-N-F...I was wanting to know what method of fishing plastics would some of you try using in a farm pond? Worms, lizards, craws, how would you rig them, etc??? This is a spring fed pond, about 3-acres in size and I mostly fish from the bank...

    RE: Plastics for a pond

    I fish a lot of ponds and my best lure by far is a flute with no wieght cast to the bank and work out. Let bait drop and wait for you line to start moving. Catch a lot of smaller fish and once in a while hook the big one. Tight lines.

    6" lizzard (purple or chartreuse) with a small bullshot pinched 3-4 " above the hook. Drag it on the bottom with occasional pauses of several seconds. Watch the line....

    Texas rig a 7" blue fleck or red shad Berkley Power Worm. I prefer a 1/8 oz. sinker for pond fishing. Another good choice is a watermelon candy ZOOM lizard rigged the same way.

    RE: Plastics for a pond

    All have made good suggestions and all plastics at times will work. However the ole tried and true texas rigged with 1/8oz slip and the baby brushhog is DEADLY. Also when the water is cold, fish the bitsY bug jig with pork trailer and YOU WILL CATCH FISH.

    White Fluke or Super Fluke, weightless flipped into any bushes or cattails that may line the bank is deadly. 1/4 oz Beetle Spin, Black and Green is another deadly pond bait.

    Tight Lines

    Bitsy Bug Jig (Black/Blue) with black and blue pork is a killer. It worked Sunday for us. We caught 14 keepers in about 2 hours. Had a blast. It is the go to bait.

    Brushhog is also good, texas rig with 1/8oz weight.

    RE: Plastics for a pond

    i would have to say the brush hogs and the baby brush hogs i love them in ponds when the water is cold i would use them with out a weight or with a lil split shot and move them real slow and in the warmer weather i would use a zoom trick worm without a weight they seem to love them in the pond that i fish

    good luck

    floating rapala (twitch, jerk), weightless worm or other plastic, and a rooster tail (even young kids can catch them on that).
