Hanover Pond 7/2/14
Message:
Arrived at the "boat launch" about 0630 this morning. Only a few others in the parking lot. After launching the kayak i parked and navigated around to get my bearings. One thing I have to mention is the fact that the Carp are HUGE in this pond. They were literally jumping from the water and landing on the lily pads. it seemed like they were chasing whatever was under those pads away and or eating them. I pedaled out to the dam and threw a 6' bass pro chartruse/green senko texas rigged. I grabbed one cookie cutter bass and tossed him back in. I then went to the area immediately to the right of the boat launch in a small cove. Continued to throw that same lure and brought in 2 2LB LMB. They fought extremely hard and once they say the yak they even fought harder. I tooled around the entire pond and once again was greeted by very very large and curious carp who appeared to be following me around and decimating any and all spots I went to fish at. They were disturbing ALL the pads and laydowns and swimming by at mach 3. It appeared that the dam is a good spot for activity as the bass were jumping pretty steadily for my duration there. I went over that way, threw a few casts with the worm and spinnerbait and got a bite but not worth me launching my pro angler over the dam and then waiting for co-workers to come rescue me from the base of the dam. After some time i noticed the lot at the ballfields becoming loaded with cars. It didn't take long for the lot to fill up and literally box my 4Runner and trailer right in the spot I had it in. The wind began to really whip up at that point and without an anchor on the yak I decided to call it quits for the day and head back home.

I can absolutely see the potential in that pond....just hard to fight the wind, carp and a loaded parking lot of baseball parents. My schedule allows me a lot of weekdays off to go to these places so hopefully I can write some good reports on what I see (or don't).
