Come one, come all! Nothing but friendly competition, bragging rights, sharing of tips, tricks, and tactics. A great time will be had by all, or beatings will be handed out!

We are gonna have this little shindig at the Ponds of FM1378. This pond is one of the favorites over on the ever popular "Post your D/FW Hotspots" thread. From Bluegills inhaling spinnerbaits, to LMBs knocking out everyhting else, this pond has it all! Crappie, BGs(yes, Night Fever!), LMBs, cats, they are all in there somewhere, you gotta pull 'em out.

I am thinking the 5th or 6th of September. Thats 2 weekends away.

Attn Knot at Work and AUMiner!

All will recieve an arse whoopin from me on 1378

Dont let him fool you! All the fish he catches are with a castnet!

haha sounds great. im down! i was out there tonight and caught a few good size lmb and at first for me at 1378, a nice cat on a roostertail!

Dang I have fished that pond for 5 years and never saw a catfish..sweet..it took me 4 years to catch a crappie in there on accident

How does a dude like myself get invited.

just come on out...

KaW, can you post directions on how to get there, say from Dallas?

From "Auminer's" post;

1378 is on the map of 'TFFers hotspots, and it's the northernmost tack on the map... it's just south of McKinney. I'm just going to go ahead & give full out directions right here too just to keep KnotatWork from having to write 100 PMs... wink


The easiest way to get there from the metroplex is to take 75 north to the 121 exit. It's the exit with the hospital, so just follow the blue 'H' signs. Go on down past the hospital and stay to your right. There's a fork in the road with a pretty sharp right hand curve, so slow it down. That'll put you on the many-named Hwy5/Greenville/Ave K. Follow Hwy 5 south for about 1/2 mile...past the closed down gas staion... to the junction with 1378. Turn left on 1378 & head east. About 1000 feet down 1378 you'll cross some RR tracks... about that same distance later, you'll reach the dip in the road, and make a left turn on Serenity Ct. By this time you'll see the pond, park anywhere and catch you some fish.

Here it is on google maps;

fly friendly?

Count me in Gentlemen, my wifes parents live out in Plano, I'm sure she'd like to go see her folks while I go "Bass Hunting" as she likes to call it.

Yea its fly friendly...There is an easier way than posted above..just shoot 75 north from Dallas to Stacy rd. Exit and take a right on Stacy until it dead ends at 1378 aka Country Club Rd..Take a left on Country Club Rd and follow it down until you see a sign on the right that says Serenity...its right past Heard Wildlife Museum.

Crago I played with my fly rod last time I went out there! There is def. room!

Hmm I am gonna have to check this place out. Sounds like it willbe a good time. Anyone know how big the pond is? I fish Bethany Lakes frequently and Stone bridge until I get chased off by the anti-fishing patrol.

I ssume we are going to do this on the 5th, seeing as its a Saturday?

Recently laid off here..so I'm off every day

anyone heading to 1378 this evening?

im thinking about it.its hard to get out of this recliner

Heading out in about 20

Save us some fish bro', we need all the help we can get!

Saturday or Sunday sounds good to me, what time do you guys plan on being there?

I didnt go...too lazy

Knot- If you're down tomorrow afternoon I'm rigging rods as we speak....

OK, lets make it Saturday.

No specific time though. I plan on staying all day.

....just thought of something - any chance of all this extra traffic attracting the "law"
out there in Fairfield??

We aren't doing anything wrong, yet. And what you talking about Fairfield? that 180 miles in the other direction.
