Dolittle Pond is a reservoir in Mohave County, Arizona and covers about 0.2 acres, reaches about 5.8 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 0.6 acre-feet.

The small size of Dolittle Pond makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Dolittle Pond, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.

Fish and Baits

For the next pass on Dolittle Pond, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.

The early check on Dolittle Pond should stay simple: begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.

How to Read the Water

When choosing a bank on Dolittle Pond, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.

Season by Season

Use this plain plan on Dolittle Pond: early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.

A Simple Tackle Plan

For a short trip to Dolittle Pond, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

To begin fishing Dolittle Pond, record the wind, water color, productive depth, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
