Fished both these ponds on the way back from Fillmore yesterday. Nothing at burraston ponds. I could see em' swimming around but I couldnt get a bite. I only spent about 15 minutes here because I was on the shallow side. The shallow water didnt help when casting my favorite lure. The KILLER MOOSE.
Next was Salem pond. I fished at the southernmost point on the east end. I saw lots of small gills or sunfish. I think I have a problem distinguishing the two. I wasnt sure what species are in there or in burraston pond for that matter. Salem pond is a really nice pond and i'm curious about what is used to catch fish here and do some areas of this pond produce more fish than other areas. I threw the KILLER MOOSE in several variations. I tried top water and spinnerbaits and small jigs. What can be had in these two ponds and what are the best tactics in targeting these fish?
