Burrston's Pond
#3
It's been many a year since I've been there. We used to stop is the very shallow (1-2 feet) areas on our way in, and catch some shrimp in the moss. They are/were fairly big there for fresh water shrimp. You can fit one or two on a size 20 hook. Float that under a bubble and you can't go wrong. Judge the distance to hang them just above or in a pocket in the moss. The ponds as I remember are only about 10 feet deep at the most. The trout are willing to take about anything as long as they aren't close to shore. They get a little bite shy when they have been pressured and can see you. I've done well there on light spinners too. Blue fox, mepps, and martins. The fish are smaller. I don't remember catching any over a pound, but you can catch them pretty fast on a good day.

I never really tried powerbait or worms, so I don't know how they would work, but I can't imagine them doing poorly.

Good luck.
