Well, i saw a thread about another pay pond where the fishing was horrible and the employees were disgruntled...dosnt sound fun at all...
I know that alot of you have little fishermen/women at home, and i also know alot of my fishermen brothers are new to the area via Robins AFB...
So, here's my preferred little pay pond...Pike's Ponds..The lady who ownds it (Mrs. Lady) is a sweetheart and her husband (Mr. Man) is a retired military guy who spends most of his time maintaining the levees and whatnot around the ponds.
$5 bucks/day...kids under 12 are free..
The front two smaller ponds are Catfish and Bream ponds. The catfish are fed, but not to the point where they won't bite your hook. The bream in these front two smaller ponds arent really worth mentioning.
The larger of the front ponds, to the far east, is full of nice sized eating bream and nice sized bass. The back side smaller pond is another good spot for Bass and Bream.
The largest of the ponds is home to some nice nice bass, big red belly bream, and crappie. This pond is about 8 ft at its deepest point close to the creek channel at the backside of the pond. I've caught lots and lots of 2-4 pounders out of here, but i have PERSONALLY WITNESSED what had to be between 10-12lbs being caught, and yes, released. Big bass live out in that grass. The topwater is good too. Also the ponds border Echeconee Creek.
so...here are some directions..
From Macon - 247 south to houston county. Right on Elberta Road. Right on Dunbar Rd. Right on Fairgrounds Road. Left on WaterFront Way.
From Warner Robins - Davis Drive north to Right on King Drive. Cross Elberta to Dunbar Road. Right on Fairgrounds Road. Left on Waterfront Way.
From HawkinsVille - Hway247 north to Left on Green Street. Right on North Davis Drive. Left on King Drive. Cross Elberta to Dunbar Road. Right on Fairgrounds Road. Left on Waterfront Way.
From Byron - I-75 to Hghway49 east. Right on Houston Lake Road. Left on Dunbar Road. Left on Fairgrounds Road. Left on WaterFront Way.
and there it is.
