The Park And Pop (Bucket), (Secret Spot)

This spot is usually called "The Bucket" by all of us who have fished here regularly. Not only is it stocked with some pretty big Largemouths but this pond has outrageously huge Sunfish as well as some Common Carp. The Largemouth, Sunfish and Common Carp can get to pretty big size in this tiny man made pond! If you're looking for the huge sunfish, as you pull up to the spot stay along the left side of the pond and follow it all the way into the back end of it. That whole area is loaded with enormous Pumpkinseed's and Bluegills! This is a lil man made drainage pond with some fat, fat, Largemouth Bass dumped in it.
