Cushing Fishing Report

5 Rating based on 2 Reviews

Get out of work at 3:30pm on Thursdays so had a AWT set up for today. Finally no disasters before fishing lol. This is a very shallow and dirty water pond. Navigation was very cautious. Given the water clarity I used a small thumping spinnerbait to start to no avail. Tried a soft plastic jerkbait and again snoot grass and no bites.

Committed to the topwater stuff and after working down one whole bank I hit pay-dirt with the buzzbait. 2 keeper plus bass on back to back casts. Tried the slow stuff after this for a bit but no school bonanza to be found. Found some heavy cover and switched to the frog missed a swipe then a nice blast. Water opened up again back to buzzbait grab another 14in bass.

Worked my way over to the super shallow side of this pond and was rewarded with a heavy 2 on the frog off to the side of the feeder creek. Followed the creek for a bit nada. Back to main pond and managed one more small bass on a frog.

Drilled a rock I never saw on my way in which was a wake up call.

All and all for 3.5hr trip it was fun and did the trick to scratch the itch. Buzzbait bites were slurps all the frog hits were crushed.
