Sort of expected. Back around 15 years ago when these 2 ponds were fairly new, they had clear water. I saw the hundreds of goldfish there. The ponds are owned by the City. Since this is a park...

Caught Goldfish #18 for the year so far last night:

Pretty slow last night. Fished deeper and managed another beautiful Goldie.

11.5" bronze Goldfish from last night. Or, it could also possibly be a Crucian Carp or Prussian Carp? I dunno...I'll assume its a goldie....
Variety rocks! :) Thanks, Lee!
Tried again yesterday evening. No goldies. Did catch a channel cat with LOTS of spots:

Awesome!
It would be more interesting if the water was clear and these fish could be spotted and targeted....but that is not the case. I've been catching these fish in probably 12"-30" of water,...
I've hit a local pond a couple times in the past week or so. I'd fished it once before a couple years ago, hoping to catch some of the big goldfish I'd heard live there. I didn't catch any goldfish...
