Is crap trap pond knowing for fishing? Tried to go in there recently, but it was really really shallow. Less than a foot in most of the entrance. Is it usually deeper?

Think this Boudreaux35 means to say

"Are crab trap ponds known for good fishing?"

But I might be wrong

I don't understand the post

Crab traps often mark a channel for you.

Sorry, I was referring to what is normally called "crab trap pond" near where chef pass runs into Lake P.

When I first moved out to the Chef I took my woman and a bottle of wine on a sunset cruise to the mouth of Chef at Lake P. On the way back, in the dark, I thought I was taking that curve of Chef back to Venetian Isles, but ended up in Crab Trap pond. Didn't notice I had effed-up until we smelled marsh mud. She was really impressed with my prop cleanin and push polin skills.

Never fished there, but I don't see why it woudn't hold reds. I may try soon and report back.

That is pretty amazing.

When I tried to scope it out, the water went from 20 feet deep to 1 foot deep in about 3 seconds... Would love to hear a report if you fish it.

Checked it out at lunchtime. Lost a trout, threw back a 15" red, and caught a lunch bass and a nice red. It was worth a try.

Shallow and grassy except between the pipes. About a foot and less in places. I trolled mostly, but did have to break out the push pole at one point.

Thanks. I may have to get over my hesitance of really shallow water (boat drafts 12") and start using a push pole versus trying to troll everywhere
