Pond Fishing Bill Dance Style
 

Took a trip with a friend pond fishing. We only kept 30 sacs with a 10in to 14in slot. Caught and released over and under the slot and released over a 100 plus. Released all bass. Kept 14 catfish. We fished for about 3 hours. Fished a brush pile field. Every time I put a shiner in the water had a fish on. Here a few pics. More to follow.

Here are a few.

I have an abu garcia 276i for sell used only one trip. Will make a good parts reel......lol. I kept the 20 largest sacs and ended with 4lb 14oz of filets.

You can't beat that with a stick!

Nice job!

What a trip :D

Awesome. Where the heck were y'all?

That's some good eats right there!

A friends farm pond in Welsh. Just off I-10. You can't see it because of the trees. The pics don't do the pond or fish justice. There is a long island the length of the pond and 2 or 3 small islands. The brush piles are added to every couple of years with willow. We fished a brush pile field. Every time you cast into the sweet spot you had a fish on. It was rare to catch under a 10in sac. We each threw back some nice 16 inch sacs. The average was in the 12 inch range. I am going to start fishing it every other week when he is in from off shore.

You ain't lying. That's all I fish for and eat. I have been fishing for them every week since March at Joe's Bayou;) and Joe's River;) averaging 25 a trip. I have a freezer full. We going to eat good this deer season.......:)

Thats a damn fine day in the water :)

is that the Watkins pond?

No its the pond behind Hendersons

We always called it goose island because the pond and the big island both look like a goose head from the air.

Brett Mcnabb grand paws pond

Yes I was with his older brother hunter.

lol, I thought I recognized Hunter! I work for his step dad Bill and that must be the pond they fish north of welsh, absolutely huge! ive talked to them cleaning a lot of sacs and most huge!

Bill and Shirley are really nice people. Yes the average is 12+ inches. We threw back the trophy sized ones that were 16in. When I said we caught a fish every cast on the brush piles it was no BS. Twice I hooked something that straightened my hook. Hunter says they have caught some nice bass out of it. Hey if you ever get a chance to go don't pass it up!

I am thoroughly I jealous

Tell hunter Chris hanks said hey me and Bret worked together and hunter came done meters for me we were suppose to bring grandson catch some.they do have awesome brush piles even better if you get them spawning along bank.
