Comment by Slip Sinker on October 22, 2013 at 12:29am: thanks for the add.. this is one avenue i have done little in... is pond fishing. i did a little exploratory mapping and came up wit alot of natural ponds on state land. i found one that interests me in particular. this five acre pond is surrounded by state land and buts up against a dirt rode with a clearing that may be suitable for a natural shore launch for jon boat or kayak. a stream passes through joining a string of lakes. others with more difficult access. kayak?

im going to try this within the next few days if the weather doesn't totally turn sour

Comment by David, aka, "McScruff" on October 18, 2013 at 7:48pm: Start with the map Tooty. Topos are nice. Do you have a smartphone?

I can recommend a free app that uses topo maps to help you locate and log fishing spots.

Just let me know.
