Vista Park Pond is a pond in Washington County, Iowa. Vista Park Pond covers about 0.6 acres.
Vista Park Pond was made by holding back a river or creek, making the old channel, bends and quiet coves sensible places to begin.
Stocking records for Vista Park Pond also list channel catfish, largemouth bass, and rainbow trout, though that does not mean those fish will be easy to catch on every trip.
For bass at Vista Park, fish weeds, wood and shade with a spinnerbait, jig or Texas-rigged worm for largemouth.
For bottom fishing at Vista Park, put cut bait, a nightcrawler or prepared bait on bottom for channel catfish.
For cold-water fish at Vista Park, run spoons or minnow-shaped lures in cool water for trout.
On a first trip to Vista Park, check incoming water, one bend in the old channel and a point near deep water with a moving lure, then slow down with a jig or worm where you get a bite.
Spring on Vista Park is a good time to check warm coves and incoming water, and summer is a good time to fish shade, weeds and the first drop into deeper water. Fall on Vista Park can bring fish back to windy points and banks, while winter calls for smaller baits fished slowly.
