My in-laws have a small man made, stocked lake in the yard. This think was stocked 8+ years ago and I doubt it has been restocked since. Within the last couple days a few nice (6-8 lbs) bass have been pulled out and thrown back. Everything lure I have has been tested and deemed unetible. What do you guys suggest?


Thanks for the hand out.

This was actually going to be tested today. I caught a small catfish and had about a 5-6#er chase and take it but the hook was too small to set through the catfish.

I used to fish a pond that the only way we would catch the bass was by throwing a cast net, catching small bream, and hooking them under a cork. We would get one just about every time.

I've had luck with bigger fish on Rapalla Floating Minnows.

If I'm trying to catch a lot of fish 1/8 or 1/4 oz Rooster Tails are my go to for ponds

Forgot about beetle spins. You can also jig the smaller ones for bream.

That's referred to as a "DuPont Spinner." No joke.

Beetle spins are my go to spinner bait.

I've caught bass, bream, sacalait, reds and a speck with it

Murky water maybe 6-8" of clarity from above. Not much structure I can see. Maybe a minnow trap and a Christmas tree or two that I can tell.
