He said it was dugout to build up I12 and is super deep but idk how accessible it is.


Was good until around 05/06 when they dug around it for fill mitigation for the apartments. Now it is a very small water surface that is full of grass. May still be some fish, but not like it was back in the day.

Pond in front of the crosses at Bethany on Siegen has some fish.
Pond behind target on Siegen was decent. Have to jump fence to get to it.
Farr Park on River Road has a couple small ponds kind of on the southern end. Have never fished in them though. Daughter used to ride there and would see them on trail rides.
Capitol Lakes for catch and release since it is superfund site...
Blackwater Conservation area but it is heavily pressured.
Healing Place Church pond, son has caught some there.

Those are ones you won't get kicked out off in addition to ones previously listed. There are plenty of other spots depending on your level of tolerance for trespassing. Google earth is your friend.

Most ponds are good the first 8-10 years because of water fertility/chemistry then those plus fish populations get out of whack
