Title: Pumpkinseed sunfish in Sanctuary Pond
Post by: KarateKick on October 03, 2016, 04:00:58 PM: Is seems like the Sanctuary Pond is suddenly full of pumpkinseed sunfish. Has someone put a few buckets of them into the pond this summer?

Pumpkinseeds love worms under a float. If you aren't getting bites keep trying different depths or areas.

Didn't want to pay for parking in one of the PNE/Playland lots. Can anyone tell me where the best place to park is here? Is it by Agrodome?
