I'd like to preface saying that I'm not asking for specific spots.
I’ve been teaching myself how to fish this year in an attempt to get in to healthier habits, so I’m sorry if these are stupid questions. I’ve been searching on the forum but haven’t really found info that I’m looking for.
I live in Colorado Springs and really would like to target Bass. The public spots around here are pretty much stocker trout (slimers I think y’all call them?). Prospect has a lot of different species, but… it’s Prospect… if you know what I mean. John Townsend looks decent, but haven’t had a chance to fish it because of some issues with the permit I bought.
I know some of the reservoirs up North and Pueblo have some good bass spots, but I’m trying to find something that isn’t an hour away
I’ve been on Google Earth and have been marking small pond size bodies of water that I’d like to scope out. Before I go on this hunt I’d like to find out my chances of finding something viable.
My questions are (and again, I’m not looking for anyone to give up specific spots):
-Do you think it’s likely that any small ponds in CO Springs would have bass?
-What’s the best way to find out if I can fish said ponds? GIS Website?
-Has anyone had luck fishing for bass in smaller spots in the Springs? (Again, don’t need specifics, just generally speaking)
