A Simple Fishing Plan for Laidlaws Pond

Keep one search bait and one slower follow-up bait ready so a short feeding window is not wasted on Laidlaws Pond. Then compare vegetation, shaded shoreline and changes from soft to firm bottom around Laidlaws Pond before searching open water.

When to Fish Laidlaws Pond

Spring at Laidlaws Pond favors warming coves, feeder mouths and protected spawning banks. Once summer heat settles over Laidlaws Pond, work the deepest active cover instead of assuming every fish has moved to the bottom.
