Pond fishing equipment can be anything from a $200 graphite fly rod
with custom-tied flies to a cane pole with a bobber and worms dug
from the garden. Many pond anglers set their lawn chairs on the bank
or docks and cast to the edge of the vegetation or brush where fish
like to hide. Some prefer float tubes that take them to the right
spots easily and silently. Others like to launch a boat.
A
well-stocked pond is the best classroom for teaching a young angler
the finer points of bass or trout fishing. Casting and retrieve methods
can be easily taught from the bank, and pond fish that don't get much
fishing pressure will bite more readily than their larger-water cousins.
It is often a long way to the closest lake and
pond fishing can be a great alternative. If you want to practice your
fly fishing technique or just cut your teeth on fishing with a fly
rod try a trip to a stocked pond. It
can be a great way for a family to spend the afternoon together.

If you have a child, take them to a pond and let them catch some
trout or bass. It is convenient, easy, and they can really get
hooked on fishing. Summer vacation is the perfect time to spend
some precious hours with them in an activity you all will enjoy.
