Higgins Pond Herring Run

What makes Higgins and Gull so unique is their connection to the Herring River. The river itself provides an annual run of herring that feed to the bass. The connection is a small inlet off of Higgins that may seem accessible but actually meanders a bridge and finally connects to the river. Not coincidentally, the biggest and consistent strikes I've had have been in the vegetation surrounding that connection. This means that when fishing the pond, use a herring crankbait imitation or a spoon to remind the bass of what they crave every year.
