If you’re struggling to catch bass in overcrowded park ponds and pressured public lakes, this video is for you. In this episode of Getting It Done Fishing, I break down how to fish hidden bass fishing ponds and lakes near you that most anglers completely overlook.
Most bass anglers fish the same park ponds, city ponds, and community lakes—which leads to high pressure and fewer bites. In this video, I show you how to locate low-pressure bass fishing ponds, including retention ponds, industrial park ponds, highway ponds, school ponds, and off-the-grid public waters that hold big largemouth bass.

“What’s the hardest pond you’ve ever found bass in? 👇”
Really great info.
Thanks for sharing
The hardest part is trying to find a place to park in some of the spots I have found. I've been thrown out of a few places as well. The HOA Karen's in some of the neighborhood ponds are brutal, LOL. It's tough to find good spots, but you have to keep doing research, and like you said, keep driving around and checking different spots out to find the honey holes.
