Double Pond

Double Pond sits in Gilchrist County and is classified as a lake; I would pick one easy-to-read section of water as the first section and keep fishing it until I get a clear read from the first setup. For the opening part of the day, I would keep working one manageable section of water until I get a clear read from the opening stretch, because moving constantly makes a lake harder to read.

Double Pond Size, Maximum Depth and Volume

In terms of scale, Double Pond is described by about 7.9 surface acres, so I would use that information to choose how much territory to include while fishing one nearby part of the lake until I learn something from the first area.

Fishing This Water

Public fish information tied specifically to Double Pond is sparse, so I would start with a basic first-trip selection of small artificials and a bottom rig around one short part of the lake and avoid specializing until I learn something from the nearby water. The first trip to Double Pond is easier to read when the tackle stays simple around one sheltered starting zone, at least until I learn something from the first hour.

A Practical Double Pond Game Plan

If I were seeing Double Pond for the first time, I would work one straightforward starting zone with only a few dependable baits and fix the first weak link in the approach after I find a repeatable bite in the first setup. If I find a repeatable bite in the opening stretch, I would stay around one promising starting zone on Double Pond and use that clue on the next similar stretch. After I see a pattern develop in the first area, I would leave Double Pond knowing that one easy-to-read area near the launch deserves another look before I start searching somewhere else.
