[size 3]Hi guys and girls.....
This is my first time posting here. I've checked past Forum comments about Floyd Lamb Park and found some helpful info. I've only been to the park once so I have a couple of questions and hope that I can get a little bit of help.
I read that there are bass & bluegill in the "lower pond". Is the lower pond the one that's furthest to the east? From an arial view, the one that has 3 branches? A NW, SW, & East branch. It looks like it's the second biggest pond in the park. Is that the lower pond?
If so, is there an advantage or di
vantage to fishing in any specific part of this pond?
And just a real general question.....Are there bass & bluegill in all four ponds? I fished the 2nd smallest pond last October and didn't get any bites. I went to the main pond and got a nice size catfish which kept me from being skunked for the day. I tried for bass and bluegill in the big pond too, but no luck. I throw everything back anyway, but it's a kick trying to out-smart them.
For the bass I'm wondering if anyone has done any good with spinnerbaits or buzzbaits, or are the soft plastics the way to go? For the bluegill I guess a mealworm on a small hook about 18" below a bobber will work if there are any in there.
I'm going to Lamb later this week so any comments will be appreciated.
