Trying Out Houghton's Pond
I have been trying to find some places to go and Houghton's Pond is near by me. It's a nice little pond, a little weedy, but it has a bunch of little fishing holes around the pond where you can have your privacy. It gets a little loud across the pond with everyone swimming but after 6 PM it gets quiet and it's very relaxing. I took my fiance fishing with me and we got there around 1:30 and found a nice spot opposite of the beach. For about the first hour and a half we were getting nothing but then we switched it up to the Berkley 7 inch Power Worms and started getting bites. In about 45 minutes I landed 2 large mouth bass and my lady landed one(her first fish). It's a good pond, a little touch and go with what you catch.
Last time I was there I saw a guy with his girlfriend both fishing. There must be something about Houghton's that attracts fishing 'dates.' ;-)
