I am currently on vacation on hilton head island and on the last day of my vacation (today) I went out try a golf course pond and after 3 weeks of vacation with most of the fishing being pretty crap I found a pond that was great. I caught a 3lber and missed what felt like a big fish around 3 pm today. Tonight around 8 pm I hooked up with the biggest bass of my life (probably around 7 lbs) only to have him break of when I tried to lift him out of the water. I have really never been a pond fisherman but i think today taught me that from the banks its probably my best bet. In the past I assumed that small ponds would not hold any quality fish and boy was i wrong. I have been using google earth to mark ponds in the Chester County aria for the last week or so and have marked around 70 ponds so hopefully this is the solution that I have been looking for.

I just got back into bass fishing about a month ago after some years off due to college. I am struggling to find quality bass water around me. I have tried Hopewell, march creek, green lane, deep creek and some other water. Hopewell had been the only lake which I usually catch fish and when I say "catch fish" I mean 1 small largemouth and that it. Most of the time I go out I get skunked and I am getting very frustrated. Should I be focusing more on small ponds more? I am not sure why I struggle to catch fish like every time I go out. It is probably worth mentioning that I do not have a boat so I am stuck on the banks.

For punching you need a heavy bullet weight minimum 1/4 oz I like a 1/2 oz and rig the bait Texas/weedless it is also a good idea to peg the weight to the bait and try to pitch the bait into thick Lilly pad patch but in a small opening also use big heavy rod and a baitcaster you need that power to pull a fish out of the kind of cover Just curious what is the lake called and where is it

i want to buy a hole bunch of jigs and dont know what to buy. what heads should i focus on and what colors and what brands.
