Pond Action Heating Up

Type: Nontidal
Region: North Central
Location: Local Pond

Just wanted to let everyone know that pre-spawn largemouth bass fishing should be in high gear with the bite switching from rattle baits to soft plastics as large fish move shallow. This weeks cold snap will push it back a bit, but look for things to rebound nicely with stable weather.

The bluegill action has also been good with quality fish to 10 inches and they are liking 1/64th ounce jigs tipped with worms or maggots below bobbers. My son Matt shows a few nice ones we got at a Mason Dixon area pond and the bass are a few of the bigger ones I got last week.
