Tips to Fishing on a Moss-Covered Pond

Many moss-covered ponds hold trophy fish. The main requirement is that the moss is not so thick that it completely robs the pond of oxygen. Fishing in the moss is a nuisance if you do not know how to make a proper approach. Once you learn how to deal with the moss, it will cause very few problems and you will learn that it provides excellent cover for predatory fish. The moss will help to hide your presence and you can use it to your fishing advantage.

Instructions

    1 Attach weed guards to all of the lures you will use in and around the moss. The weed guard is a simple, stiff piece of monofilament that guards the point of the hook from becoming tangled in vegetation. When a fish strikes, the guard does not prevent the hook from penetrating the fish's mouth.
    2 How to Fish on a Moss-Covered PondConcentrate on the edges of the weed beds to draw fish into the open. Predatory fish will hide in the weeds and burst out when prey swims past. With the fish in the open, they will be much easier to land.
    3 Fish on top of the weeds with poppers and top-water lures. Look for lines in the weeds where fish may have swum recently and try to draw them to the surface.
    4 Use line that is several pounds heavier than typical. This will allow you to pull fish from the moss without breaking the line.
    5 Find a small opening in the moss. Jig directly over the opening but stand several feet back to prevent casting a shadow. Fish will gather in these small openings to capture extra oxygen and sunlight.
