I i've been fishing in Canada pond all my life And I have pulled out Bass in excess of 6 pounds and Pickerle in excess of 4 lbs. I have also caught sunfish, crappie, perch, German carp, Eels and Catfish. The fact that they are talking about draining the pond so they don't have to fix the Damn is troubling but they may have an issue as spotted turtles live in the pond and they are currently listed as an endangered species.
