Trout'n At Little Pond
Had to work early Sunday morning, but got out at 7:45am! So I decided to try my luck with the Morning Trout Bites down at Little Pond.
The boat wasn't loaded but I had all my tackle in the truck so I figured do a little shore casting. It was brisk, but no wind yet so I figured I'd cast a few until 10am.
Rolling upto the pond it was peppered with shore fisherman, and a few boats and kyaks. I was actually amazed at how many people were trying for these trout.
I ended up finding a spot away from the boat launch, Loaded up some PowerBait on a little treble hook trout rig and cast about 25 yards off shore where i saw a few jumps.
5 minutes later, BAM! the line took off. It was a wrestle getting him in. 14.5 inches and 1.35pounds. Lunch!
I ended up getting 5 bites total- one of which snapped my line (4pound mono leader).
Fished 8am-10:20am came home with 2 Rainbows. What a great start to the day!
I can see why it's harder to get bites at Dusk with all that Morning Fishing Pressure. My advice is to get there early for a good spot and start your day right!
