Quick notes from the field.
Bethany Lakes - Checked out the Back Pond and the Creek that runs into Bethany Lakes. Observed a number of small Bass, Sunfish, and Bluegill in the Creek. Caught small Bluegill in the Back Pond on flyfishing gear and a Bead Head Gold Ribbed Hares Ear Nymph fished slowly on the bottom. Only had about twenty minutes to fish due to family commitments but did manage to catch 5. See sample of one Bluegill below.

Small Bluegill
"No-Name Pond" - Stopped by the pond located at the intersection of North Allen Heights and Dartmouth. Walked the trail and noted two ponds. A walking bridge crosses the pond and leads into a neighborhood. Not sure what to call it, but for ease of reference, the pond that is North of the bridge is the Upper Pond and the one that is South of the bridge is the Lower Pond. Did not see any fish but it does look promising.
Upper Pond
Lower Pond
Allen Station Dam - Water remains cloudy but it is flowing well from the rains earlier this week. Did not see fish either, but with the recent warming trend, should see some activity.

Celebration Park - Fished the North Pond. Also used flyfishing gear and the Bead Head Gold Ribbed Hares Ear Nymph. Caught 12 Bluegill/Sunfish in less than an hour. Same tactic as Bethany Lakes, fished slowly on the bottom. Smaller than the ones at Bethany; still fun to catch though.
North Pond
All for now. Good luck and good fishing!
