Slow. The pond is now full from fall rain, but is still a bit weedy. The pond was stocked heavily this spring and some wily rainbows are likely still lurking around in the deeper water. Young anglers may have some success early in the morning when the wind is mild. A bobber with good old-fashioned PowerBait should entice these fish to bite. Pulling spinners could work as well but anglers will want to avoid getting tangled in dense vegetation.

Oregon State Parks manages Arizona Pond for anglers ages 17 and under. This is a great place for new anglers to learn fishing techniques.
