So, this is my first season bass fishing and such and the past 2 weeks I've tried my hand at new ponds in my area(Hampden) or close to my area. And I just can't seem to..locate the fish I guess is the easiest way to describe it. I've had my luck at a few places, mainly Cape Cod ponds, and around here I've gotten a few decent ones mainly dinks tho if I get quantity.
For example, this weekend I am going to go to the Oxbow Pond (http://www.mass.gov/dfwele/dfw/habitat/maps/ponds/pond_maps_cvd.htm). If you guys were planning on going here for the first time, where would you start/go first? The access on the bottom right is the free ramp so that's where I'll start. I also just have a 12 ft with a 34 lb trolling, if you wanna account for time/travel once on water. Thanks for any input, I'm slowly getting the gist of the fishing scene, next season it should be a lot more productive.
