Just looked it up..
11 acre lake and looks nice..
A basic catfish rig with a cut up blue gill for bait should work...

that's a catch and release pond only so you'll need to get some catfish bait from the store ,walmart cares some or (not sure if legal check) go to a bait shop get some bunker ,mackerel or clam ...chicken livers work great too if your catfish are bullheads nightcrawlers are the ticket ....there are some big bass in those ponds
we want pictures
be safe

for catfish a simple hig low rig a lead weight on bottom just above that a snelled hook about a foot above that another hook baid cast out and wait for a bite .....(dead fishing) bass I would be tossin lures top water in the early morning then shallow running crank baits ......for blue gil a small jig or size 10 hook with a split shot a bobber about 18 inches above that piece of worm for bait ....u tube is a great place to check out rigs and how to fish them good luck fishingkid
