Hi Guys,

A real novice here.

Live outside of Boston.

Refuge opened up near house, and has a nice decent sized Pond in it.

There is a sign that says the Pond has the following:

a. Pickeral
b. SmallMouth Bass
c. Largemouth Bass
d. Crappie, Sunfish, Yellow Perch, etc.

What lures do you think would be a good bet to try for each category ?

Would you go for the kind you retrieve, or just something on the end of
a Bobber ?

Sure would be exciting to get a Pickeral.
Anything specific for them ?

Have tried Mepps (with the skirt); is without a skirt "better" ?,
and the Slug-O rubber worms.

Not even a nibble.

Any advice would be most appreciated.


I live in the same area. I'd say the best all around lure would be a
shallow diving crankbait. Color nor critical but I fave the 'baby bass'
or 'shad'. Fish it near cover...Stumps, rocks, etc. Soon, you'll be as
addicted as the rest of us!

Fish em up!
