Mayhaw Pond sits in Holmes County and is classified as a lake; I would pick one easy-to-read section of bank as the first section and keep fishing it until I get a useful clue from the first setup. For the opening part of the day, I would keep working one manageable section of bank until I get a useful clue from the opening stretch, because moving constantly makes a lake harder to read.
Mayhaw Pond Size, Maximum Depth and Volume
In terms of scale, Mayhaw Pond is described by about 2.5 surface acres, so I would use that information to choose how much water to cover while fishing one nearby shoreline stretch until I see enough in the first area.
Fishing This Water
Public fish information tied specifically to Mayhaw Pond is sparse, so I would start with one light rod with a jig, worm, and float around one short shoreline stretch and avoid specializing until I see enough in the nearby water. The first trip to Mayhaw Pond is easier to read when the tackle stays simple around one straightforward section of water, at least until I see enough in the first hour.
A Practical Mayhaw Pond Game Plan
If I were seeing Mayhaw Pond for the first time, I would work one promising section of water with only a few dependable baits and make the simplest change first after I get a clear read from the first setup. If I get a clear read from the opening stretch, I would stay around one easy-to-read section of water on Mayhaw Pond and use that clue on the next similar stretch. After I learn something from the first area, I would leave Mayhaw Pond knowing that one manageable part of the lake deserves another look before I start searching somewhere else.
