Went out there today, fishing was tough. lots of mamas either making beds or getting ready to. Wouldnt hit on anything though.

TFF sticker spotted on a Blue Honda though.

Good time to take the kids out though. Bullheads up to 15"/1.25 lbs hitting on chicken livers on the bottom with a slip sinker. Heck, fun for me too until the bass start cooperating.

Tonight I tried Colleyville Justice Center for bass. Threw everything I had. Nada

Where in Colleyville are these pomds at?

off of glade rd and mill creek i think is the name of the road


if you have gps put this address in and it takes u there.

100 mill wood dr colleyville tx


in case youre wondering the address is a house across the street from one of the ponds.

Bassitup, I am the only one that catches fish out there everytime..sorry I missed your call but some of us have to work.

Got a 16" mudcat today, but the overall bite was slow. Also tried sight fishing for bass on beds but couldn't get them to bite

Never have caught anything at nature center...or seen anybody else catch anything when I was there.

Waste of time IMO

If your willing to fish "community only" subdivision ponds (aka only WE can use it but never do) there are some good bass action in Colleyville.

Fire station small cats always hit...only get bites from crappie at sunset/sunrise.

Justice center...Never caught anything there...saw one guy catch one.

Justice Center is a good place for bass; in my opinion, better than the fire station. Bass are larger at Justice Center

I fished the justice center and pond across the street on Sunday morning between say 10:30 and 1:00 and caught 8 LMB, mostly on a spinner, and one or two on a swimbait. The largest was probably 2 1/2 to 3#.

I caught 2 at the Colleyville Nature Center on Saturday afternoon, neither real big but still nice to catch!

OK, I screwed up the picture posts. Here are a few from Sunday at the Justice Center

Some of us work enough in a week to deserve a day off now and then

Justice center is always a good spot for bass. i fish these ponds 3 to 4 times a week and do well. have caught several 3 and 4 pounders out of em. talked to a nice cop couple days ago who said there should be a bunch of nice catfish in the pond closest to hall johnson. says the city stocks it for kids fishin derby. good luck

The one closest to Hall is full of Bream...I caught 7 in an hour while bass fishing...they are aggresive to say the least.

any carp out there. i know they have multiple ponds.
any carpies??

have never caught a carp in cnc or cjc...but also never tried.

FUN FOR THR KIDS/GRANDKIDS. Small/medium mudcats are tearing up chicken livers fished on bottom with slip sinker at the old Colleyville fire house. Nothing over 10-12 inches, many smaller, but pretty much a guaranteed bite.

Anyone have some fly rod action at these ponds? I drive right by these a couple of times a week...whodathunkit?

Im never going there again. Too much pressure on every pond there.

believe it or not i have had great luck lately catching bedding bass on a chartruse and white roadrunner. just jump it in their face and they will eat it!

I saw a fly fishermen out this past week at CNC. Only thing I saw him catch was a few blue gill - but I think that's what he was targeting.

My grandkids caught about 20 mdcats (and 1 turtle) in about an hour at the old fire station

Fished CJC tonight and got two decent lmb and one large blue gill - using my favorites for there: white rooster tail and chartruse roadrunner. Grass is starting to grow and they're hugging the shore and in the grass

I went out on Saturday after the children's event but I couldn't find out which pond was stocked. 6 different ponds to choose from. Geesh!!! Anyone went out on Saturday?

Went to the one on the 2nd from last one before dead in. Saw one small bass caught.

Pond by the old fire house off Hall Johnson is starting to produce bass. All on plastics - wacky worm and baby brush hog

Several small bass this morning at the old fire station. All on baby brush hog.

Bass were hitting for about an hour this morning at the old fire station. Landed 3, largest was a nice 17"

Here is a video report on Colleyville Nature Center on 2008-05-08

Dang you were lucky. Good thing you got it on video!!I get skunked every time I fish that area.

If you're fishing for bullheads/channels (there are some good sized ones), I've found a big hunk of chicken liver fished on the bottom in the middle of the ponds, with an egg slip sinker is a good rig. To keep the liver on, I wrap a sandwich bag tie around the liver. Cats don't mind at all. It helps hold the liver on when you cast and prevents the cats from sucking it off your hook.

Fished CJC this afternoon. Got 3 lmb, 2 dinks and one 15". All on baby brush hog

Then start a justice center thread this is for the nature center.

Why don't you rename this thread Colleyville? Seems like there's as much about the justice cennter and old fire station as there is about CNC. And, they're all within 10 minutes of each other. When one's not hitting, one of the others is.

Can someone give me directions to Firestation and Justice Center please?

Neil

Firestation is on Hall Johnson. Go east about a mile on Hall Johnson (from Glade) past the cemetary and you'll see the pond on your left. Park in the station lot. Justice Center. Again go east on Hall johnson from Glade. Turn right at the post office and go about 1/2 mile. There are 3 ponds there. Best I've found is the one right at the Justice Center (you'll see sign) It has a fountain in it.

All I've ever caught at CNC is small ones. Only been to Justice Center once and just caught a small one. Will try it again someday

Where is the Justice Center Pond? I am moving to Dallas in about a month and am looking for public places to bank fish for bass

5201 Riverwalk Dr
Colleyville, TX 76034
United States

There's 2-3 good ponds there
