Haven't they tried to kick you out from fishing that location 😉😆

I believe they are too dumbfounded to understand why anyone would WANT to fish there!

I needed a bullhead for this year's flyfishing list.... and I was only there because my wife was at a work-related event in the complex.  I drove her, and fished to kill time until she was ready to head home.

There are some BIG Goldfish in there, but I didn't see many big ones last night.  I caught one of the bigger ones I saw.

It has a little bit of a "Wal-Mart" feel to it.  You go, but you wish you had better options.  Its a pretty spot, sorta, for an urban pond.

You know that those bullhead will always bite 😉. I would hate to be small and fall into that pond anywhere near those black bullheads.

Put in some substantial windshield time, and met up with @Ham for some good times looking for more species on the fly rod.  The main target for this trip was Northern Snakehead.  Hamilton gets it done again and again!  I caught 4 on a Howitzer Head bass popper, 20 lb tippet, 9 wt rod.  It's close quarters mayhem in the canoe when one strikes!  My biggest of the trip measured a good 25.5".

Here's the first one:

The 4th one was the biggest one, the 25.5-incher:
