When I went to LSU, '68 to '72, there was a stocked pond in front of a Catholic church on Airline somebody told me about that was loaded with bass. I use to fish it but I can't remember exactly where it was located and don't see anything on satellite. Anybody know what I'm talking about and is it still there?

The pond is still there. It's behind Jay's BBQ, between Jay's and All Star Chevy's back lot. I'm not sure it's accessible.

years ago Mayer Clothes sold Orvis fly rods.
I got to try one out before I bought it.
They had a fairly small dock in the back of that strip mall where you could see the Allstar Chevy dealer on the other side.
