Do office complex ponds have big bass ?

This has the makings of an interesting thread. We've all had experiences or know of friends who have had experiences with fishing on private waters without permission. If you want any local knowledge of access to some good fishing holes that are fenced in, just ask one of the kids who fish there. I knew of some holes in fences in some great fishing spots when I was younger. I found out about them from some younger fishermen.

There are golf course ponds and farm ponds that can provide some phenomenal fishing as well as those on the corporate campuses. The problem is always with gaining permission to fish there. One of the best fishing days of my young life was cut short when I spotted a security guard patrolling the perimeter of the small private watershed into which I had sneaked.

The patrols around the reservoir across from the Short Hills Mall and the one by the Livingston Mall were legendary. So was the fishing. Has anyone ever fished in the Boonton Reservoir? Sneaking into private or posted honey holes is not meant for more mature fishermen, but as a kid, it was a rush.

Are there big fish in those corporate campus ponds, there's only one way to find out.
