Buttonwood Pond

Buttonwood Pond is a lake in Gilchrist County, and on a first trip I would start around one nearby section of bank and stay there until I see enough in the nearby water. I would keep the opening plan simple around one short shoreline stretch and leave it alone until I see enough in the opening stretch.

Buttonwood Pond Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

The useful physical figures for Buttonwood Pond are about 1.1 surface acres, giving me enough scale to decide how much water to cover while I work one sheltered shoreline stretch until I get a clear read from the first area.

Fishing This Water

The fishery at Buttonwood Pond is lightly documented, so I would use a compact mix of live bait plus one or two simple lures around one promising section of water and let the first trip stay broad until I get a clear read from the first adjustment. The best first setup on Buttonwood Pond is a simple one around one easy-to-read section of water, and I would leave it alone until I learn something from the first few casts.

A Practical Buttonwood Pond Game Plan

I would approach Buttonwood Pond by choosing one manageable part of the lake, one target, and a small tackle selection, then make only the changes the first few bites justify after I learn something from the nearby water. If I learn something from the first hour, I would stop searching randomly and fish one nearby part of the lake properly on Buttonwood Pond. If I find a repeatable bite in the first area, I would make a note of what happened around one short part of the lake and use that as the starting point the next time I fish Buttonwood Pond.
