Slow. Water levels are dropping and the pond is very 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 or late in the afternoon when conditions are cooler. A bobber with good old -fashioned PowerBait should entice these fish to bite. Pulling spinners could work as well but might be more challenging with the additional vegetation this time of year.

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