Private Pond Fishing Getaways

Location: Nebraska – On-Ranch Stocked Ponds

Southwest Prairie Outfitters offers a relaxed, private catch-and-release fishing experience on multiple stocked ponds located on the ranch. With easy access from the lodge, this is a perfect add-on to a hunt or a standalone trip for anglers looking to unplug.

Ponds hold largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and channel catfish. Fishing is productive from the shoreline, dock, or small craft like jon boats with electric trolling motors, kayaks, or canoes. Standard tackle (plastic worms, small jigs, spoons) and live bait both produce well.
