I went out to Hermitage Park Pond and it is still very alive!!! This is a fishery I hate to see die off every year. An underutilized, close to home great little fishery in the city of Edmonton.
I recommend getting out there and giving it a try if you have a spare morning or evening and don't want to drive far.
I used to fish this pond before I had wheels. Bike to it in the open water. Take the bus after University class as soon as it froze in winter. I was even kicked off by the police once. They asked what I was doing... I responded, "ice fishing". Now my response would probably be a little more sarcastic and he'd have to drag me off, haha.
I got out there around 10am and caught two bows pretty quick. Around noon got two browns as well. They seemed pretty aggressive when they came around. There might not be many in there at this point in the game, but they're all decent size and not too hard to catch!
I caught two on the Jigging Jaw Jacker and one stationary Jaw Jacker. Both tipped with circle tackle 7mm tungsten jigs in white and chartreuse. Tipped with night crawlers or meal worms.
The fish ranged in the 14 to 16 inch.
Check it out, best of luck!
