• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. There is somewhere to leave the car, half a mile off. The water borders Sloping Acres Park, so reserve rules are likely to apply. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. For a change of water, John Dees Pond is 1.3 miles distant. Nothing here settles the position at Frost Road Pond for certain.
