A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Failing this one, try Sudduth Pond, 1.9 miles away. Nothing on Hughey Pond should be assumed from this page alone.
