Hayes Pond
17 miles away
...Been Privilaged To Experience. Father Had A Great Love Of Fishing And He Had A Few Other Smaller Ponds That He Would Cultivate In Different Ways. For Instance He Had A Small Pond As You Entered The Property From The Dam Entrance And We Called It The Frog Gigging Pond Because It Grew The Biggest Tadpoles Which Eventually Turned Into Monster Bullfrogs. Then He Had A Little Larger Pond Beside The Old House That My Great Grandfather Judge Ioor Hayes Had Built With His Son James Cline. Well This Pond Beside The House Was Used To Hold Large Cats That He Would Release Into The Large Pond. He Would Always Be Careful About How Many. And When He Would Release Them He Was Always Watching The Balance Of Their Environment. Then If You Took A Little Ride Around The Back Curve Of The Road Behind The House You Would Come Upon A Really Nice Bream Pond To The Left. Now You Could Say You Were Really In For A Treat If You Were Allowed To Fish There .... Guest Included Because They Were Huge!!!! If You Went On About 100Ft Or So On The Right My Father Had Built On His Own Some Catfish Hatching Ponds. I Wa...
