anyone know of any good ponds with access for public fishing? any subdivision or neighborhood ponds? I know of millers pond but it seems like that place gets fished out quick once its stocked. Im lookin to get my fish fix!!!!

Tony,

Hidden Lake @ Bandera/1604 is good, the westlakes ponds by 410 and 151 are decent, there are 3 in that area. Tom slick off, Military and 151 is ok but there are lots of people, there is also a pond by 410 and 90 by the apartments... those are the ones that I have fished and caught some decent bass, I would say the hidden lake pond is the best.

awesome, thank you. I will try these places out. thanks again.

where can you park at hidden lake, it looks to me like you have to go through the coded gates to fish it. thanks jason

There is Earl Scott pond on Babcock Rd. Live Oak Park off Topperwein. And North Converse Park also off Topperwein

Can you just get into the complex and park and go fish?
is it public?
it is good how? nice bass? numbers? size?
tips on bait?

I would like to go visit, just wondering where to park
Thanks guys

there is a huge pnd right behind Northeast Lakeview College. I've never fished it, but have seen many fishing while daydreaming through class. Saw some catfish get caught, and I think some bass but it was hard to tell from a distance.

that is the live oak city park, haven't been there but they say that you can fish it and that it is not bad at all.

from when i've been there, there's only a couple of spots to fish from in the park area, and they aren't that great. unless you cheat and go over the big metal cable that should tell you to stay out that everybody just steps over :|

Live Oak lake... it's horrible. I've fished there dozens of times and to this day I've only pulled out ONE 3lber. Maybe it's just my luck but I've fished everywhere from the dock to the spillway, all the way back into the woods and the frisbee golf course, to the back where it bends out into a peninsula. Just never had luck out there. I know of quite a few ponds here in San Antonio myself, shoot me a pm if you're interested.

cibolo creek off 78 down schaffer road is good. there is a pond down off kittyhawk on northlake by the school is alright. north converse pond in north converse park can be great ive pulled some decent gills and bass outta there.

have you still been fishing hidden lake? I went there twice and not a bite

Thanks for the tips on this. I am an avid bass bank angler living in Chesapeake, VA and will be moving to San Antonio in about 2 weeks. We have some many community ponds and lakes here that if you trip you would probably into one.
