Just stumbled upon 3 ponds the other day.. Caught a few 2 lb'ers but nothing over that. Lots of bass in the back pond.

I'm confused about which ponds you're talking about?

Used to fish those in high school. The last pond on the right just before you get to 20 was the best but it's kinda private...

Where do you park to walk to the ponds? Have been wondering about those for awhile.

If you can walk to easily Ill bet you could launch a kayak or small john/pontoon boat fairly easy. Ill keep that in mind when I go to check them out later.
