Hey guys,

I met a nice family who has an 11 year old son who has recently gotten hooked on fishing, he lives in Stuart Florida and fishes a  nearby freshwater pond, but hasn't had much luck. I donated a lot of gear that we had lying around, but not much for freshwater. He is really excited, and they want to encourage his newfound love to keep him out of trouble in the future. Anyway I gave him all the advise I could on freshwater, river, and saltwater fishing and tackle to match and a number of spots to try. However I know way less about freshwater, and would like to increase his knowledge so that he gets really addicted, and the best way to do that is with shared experience. So I am asking for any help, you know, any tricks, knots, baits, spots to look for, presentation etc.

Please post ANYTHING that can help increase his chances, and make him look good in the process LOL. Thanks guys.

Mike

for fresh water just a plastic worm or topwater normally gets results or if you want to get him into fly fishing catching panfish with little poppers is always fun

LAPPYS RULE!

I would say when you go early in the mouring to try a buzzbait or a topwater torpedoin what ever color you like in the middle of the day spinnerbaits and mostly any thing that is flashy.what you can do is find out what them bass are eating in that pond and just basically match the hatch that's really all you have to do.because bass fishin is really easy once you find out what they eat and you can sit there and catch them all day because i have done it plenty of times say try to take thiis advice.hopes this helps you.tight lines!

bomber "fat a" in silver or chartouse. reel for a couple of cranks then let float for a 2 count repeat until strike always works, work the shorelines any time of day.
