Issues

Please help. I have a 12 foot deep, 6 acre pond in NE Indiana I stocked 4 years ago with large mouth. I can't catch even one!!! I'm an "ok" fisherman but does anyone know of a surefire way to even see if there still in there? Live bait? I'm totally lost... Thanks in advance

Kevin

P.S. There isn't much cover and it's in full sun

Maybe there's an ROFBer who lives close by and would like to help you investigate.

Is the pond aerated?? Do you see any life in there? Bluegill's, minnows, crawdads or anything? Or does it look "dead"? I would say your best luck would be at night right now or early morning right before the sun comes up. Try a jitterbug or a popper and if that doesn't work, try an inline spinner worked slowly and see how that does... Dark Texas rigged worm with a worm rattle in it is a pretty good bet too. I, too, live in NE Indiana and fish up north frequently, the James chain and Hamilton mostly and sometime get to Coldwater. If you'd like, I would make a trip there and give it whirl, maybe swap a few fishing strategies with ya?. I personally am from around the Fort Wayne area myself. I usually can come up with something if there's fish in it. Not to toot my own horn, but it's pretty rare that I get skunked.

Let us know how you do!

That sounds good! I live in SW Fort Wayne... I actually tried a Jitterbug red/white tonight for a couple of hours and I caught a HUGE bluegill (it didn't even fight - I thought I had weeds) but no bass... It's certainly not dead.. also caught a big cat a few weeks back...
