There are definitely bass in there. Pulled a 3-lbr out of there the other night. Carp as well cruising around. I've heard there are pike but have yet to see/catch one. If the pond bite isn't on, you a 30-second walk from the canal (good rock bass, panfish area) and another couple minutes from the river to try for the odd walleye, etc.

I've yet to make up to this pond in Albion. It is a hike and by the time my kids are in bed, half my night's gone so waiting for a good time when the wife (and kids) are busy to sneak away. Anyway, as to your question about other spots with an inflatable...I frequently fish the ponds in Squaw Island Park adjacent to Black Rock canal by the river. I have a float tube and have been wanting to try it there (It's probably 15 acres) but like I said, I'm usually out at night and not too comfy floating at night. I'd certainly give it a try if I were you.

park at wally world and hoof it across the way or park alongside 31? want to draw the least amount of attention to myself.

yeah, that's the one I was looking at. think I make a run up there soon, like tonight.

I, too, am a shore-bound angler in Lancaster and am always looking for an out of the way place to get after some fish. I've fished Bird Island Pier and Squaw Island (ponds and Black Rock canal) and am tired of catching tiny fish. I've had some luck along Ellicott Creek within Ellicot Creek Park off the Blvd. this walmart pond in Medina sounds intriguing. I looked it up on Google maps and it looks sweet. I imagine it's private property though. ever had an issue with access?
