Default Allen Bill Pond

Hey guys,

I know the floods annihilated the pond, but has it been fixed since? Is it stocked?

Might be a nice place to catch some wild fish from the elbow river, but i always liked the pond and had a beautiful scenery there... too bad

allen bill pond is now allen bill recreation area. It doesn't even look like there ever WAS a pond there. Try mclean down the road a bit, murkier water but I hear it's been fishing well lately.

I don't believe forgetmenot has been stocked in years. It's a beautiful spot, and you usually see people fish there, but I've never seen anyone pull anything out, and I've never seen a rise or any sign of fish.

Thanks for the view. I didn't get to make it out there this year. My moms memorial bench is right by where you are, thanks for the pic. And I have seen fish surface there last year.

I was at forgetmenot a couple of weeks ago with my girls and saw a few risers and spotted a few. They were small and probably come up the stream from elbow.

I stand corrected! I'll try to get out there and fish it and make a report

It's probably not worth your time Flieguy. I'm sure you'd have more fun going up Ford creek. I caught a bunch of little cutties when I checked it out on the same trip.
