Okay, I live in West Des Moines, IA and lately I have been fishing with some of my friends. Obviously the ice melted about a month ago and I need to know, What is the best way to catch big fishing or catfish in a local pond?????
Cheap Beach Holidays.

Toss a nightcrawler (worm) on a hook with a sinker and toss it out. let it sit on the bottom and wait for a tap on the line. set the hook and youre good to go. Pretty easy stuff. Thats the most simple rig I can think of.
Good luck and let the big ones go!!!

Talk to other fisherman who have caught large fish. Go to the bait store and ask for advise.

Shad guts, cut shad, chicken liver, bait shrimp, stink bait. Catfish love that stuff. Dew worms. Do you have bass in the pond? You mentioned “big fish” I like to jig fish with plastic worms for bass. Good luck.
