Penney Hollow Pond is a lake in Iron County, Utah and covers about 0.5 acres, reaches about 6.1 feet at its deepest point and holds roughly 1.2 acre-feet.
The small size of Penney Hollow Pond makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle. With little deep water in Penney Hollow Pond, weeds, wind, and water color can matter more than depth alone.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; try deeper shade during summer afternoons, then save the heaviest tackle for deep cover.
Begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water; try the first deep shelf after the bank, then add vibration in stained water.
Do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself; follow the old channel through the lake, then separate open water from cover.
Shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move; fish where rock meets mud, then keep the first route short.
a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle; begin beside green weeds, then make one pass close to bottom.
Record the wind, water color, productive depth, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce; keep the lure near the depth that produced, then save the heaviest tackle for deep cover.
