Golf course fishing

[SoCalFisher606]

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to do some golf course fishing, I've done it a few times already but I haven't caught anything yet. Can anyone reccomend any lures or tactics to use? I live in the glendora/san dimas area. Thanks in advance

I live in San Dimas also. When I was younger, I fished the Via Verde Country Club 16th hole many many times. There were big catfish in there, not sure about now though. We used to use cheddar cheese cut into little blocks with a split shot and 6-8" leader, worked flawlessly. I've never used lures while golf course fishing. There's a little lake on the 4th hole also but never fished it, might be safer though since its completely out of sight. Hmm, maybe I should try the 4th soon?

Dangers during the day: Cops, the marshall, and golfers (oh my lord do golfers become furious when they catch people fishing their lakes, watch out!!)
Dangers during the night: Cops, coyotes

I also know that Palm Lakes in Pomona off of the 71 (either 3rd or 4th hole, I forget) has some beautiful LMB's...never fished it but the water is crystal clear and you can see them swimming around.

Good luck!!

I use to do it a lot.

Try a Texas rigged black or camo power worm with no weight. 4" curly tail.

Is this considered ninja? or can people really fish in golf courses?

Definitely ninja. I don't believe there's any laws regarding fishing on a golf course, but if someone sees you and calls the cops, they can bust you for trespassing especially if the golf course if private. I'd go at night IMO...most golfers consider the golf course "THEIR" course and fishermen are basically considered intruders because it's a golf course, not a recreational area.
