Bob - You may have had only one or two successful nests this year. You may not see any of this years young until they are about 2"-3" long. Look more carefully in late July or Aug. Use some wire mesh minnow traps baited with 1/2 slice of bread. SMbass readily go into traps, but not for the bread. I think they are nosey and looking for cover. Bread will attract small fish and bass will enter trap looking for food/cover. Set traps near cover. You should also catch lots of goldfish with the traps. Use gold fish as bait for adult bass.

You may have difficulty catching any of the adults since you only put 10 in orginally. Try fishing with goldfish w/ a bobber and a 2" goldfish with only a split shot and a #6 or 4 aberdeen hook. Hook goldfish through lips; work it along the bottom near cover, logs or rocks. The adults may be very hard to catch due to the abundance of easy to catch goldfish as food.

Does your pond have some crayfish present?
