Bass

Low light favors a topwater or spinnerbait for Island Grove Pond largemouth; brighter conditions call for a slower presentation beside cover.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

For Island Grove Pond crappie, hold a 1/16-ounce jig or minnow beside wood instead of dragging it through snags.

Walleye and Larger Predators

A spoon or compact swimbait worked beside weeds is a practical chain pickerel choice on Island Grove Pond.
