| I've fished Horseshoe a couple of times, and although I have not
pulled anything large out of there, I have heard that some big ones
are in there. Despite its small size, there's a deep (40' or so)
hole right at the bend of the pond.
I doubt that I'll ever fish it again, though. With all the condos
and such going up plus all the Rt 3 traffic noise, I don't find
it a very enjoyable place to relax and fish!

193.2 | Airborn bass at lunch! | TORCH::MACINTYRE | Life's great, then u live forever. | Fri Oct 03 1986 14:03 | 14 |
| I just checked out Horseshoe pond for the first time at lunch today.
I was thinking about taking my nephew there tomorrow, so I wanted to
find the launch. I used to swim off a big rope swing right off
of rt 3 years ago, but have never fished it.
Anyway, I decided to get out and take a few casts since I had my
tackle with me. I only took about 10 casts and didn't get any hits.
BUT about 30 yds away, right in the weeds next to the launch, SPLASH!
A good size bass came about 2 feet out of the water, I'm guessing
it was at least 3.5lbs, probably more. Shocked the sh*t out of me!
Needless to say, that's where I'll be tomorrow!

| Thanks for being so honest. I guess it's still worth a shot.
It's easy to get "Skunked"
this time of the year!

193.8 | I'm looking for one to mount.. | CHUNK::HANNAFIN | | Wed Jun 07 1989 17:57 | 16 |
| I jumped on over to Horseshoe Pond at lunch today just to check it
out. Once I got there I couldn't help myself. I grabbed the old
pole, threw a purple rubber worm on it and went at it. I threw
the worm into the lily pads and weeds a few times, nothing. Put
my waders on, moved out into the pond about 8 feet and bang got
a 2lb. Smallie on the third cast. Nothing after that. Fished
both sides of the ramp for about an hour. Seems like a nice pond,
but very populated around one side with all the condo's and such
growing around there. Any comments on the pollution mentioned
in re.0?? The smallie looked heathly to me. Anybody have any
input to access of this pond from any points other than the ramp
area??
Thanks / Dan
