So I decided to check out a new pond today near my house. Wasn't having a whole lot of luck so I decided to try and get to the other side from where I was. Tromped through the forest and was cut of by a tiny creek the ran in to that pond. Decided to give it a shot. Not very deep at all. Maybe 3ft at the most. Landed this chunky bass after nailing a couple dinks. No scale, but I would say 4lbs-5lbs. Caught it on a Zoom Finesse worm in Green Pumpkin running it Drop Shot style. Not bad for a tiny creek!

Nice bass!

The little creek probably had a bit of moving water, and they like that situation. Good fish!

Nice job amazing never thought to fish small creeks for bigger bass

Sometimes they get trapped but still seem to flourish in those small waters! A current is always nice. They hide under whatever shelter they may find and wait for their meal to float by. Never underestimate a body of water

I think calling that a creek is a bit generous! Looks more like a ditch to me. Anyway, nice catch.

Nomenclature will vary from one individual to another....my creek evidently differs from yours. I call half of that a creek. Go figure.

agree what most of you call a lake I think of it as a pond having grown up on a great lake

Exactly. I hear people from some areas call a pond a lake. To each his own. It's whatever you're accustomed to mainly. No wrong answers.

I would agree with you on that one! It's a creek though. if you look, you can see a tunnel at the far side of it. Plus i looked it up and that creek has an official name lol

I once caught a nice bass out of a small trout stream.

Never overlook small creeks for nice bass.
