Took the kid to school and noticed I had a couple rods in the car, so I decided to head over to Hayes pond. Nothing could explain today's trout fishing besides most excellent. I got there around 7:30 and fished tell 1:30 and caught about 70 fish, 2 of which were small bass the rest were trout averaging just over 12 inches and VERY FAT. The guy next to me only caught 3 but he caught a 19 incher... I told him I'd rather of just caught that one then all the ones I was catching... he couldnt believe I wasnt keeping any of them. I was using "salmon peach" power bait and salmon eggs. It was really windy and they seemed to be stacked up on the windy side bank in a deep pocket. (straight out from the first fishing spot as you drive up the hill) I deep hooked 3 all on trouble hooks, and gave them away to a couple people around me, only had 3 trouble hooks so I started using power bait on a size 6 snell. Every cast I got a hit or a fish it was very entertaining, they were very aggressive today possibly a fresh stocking. I even managed to catch 2 at a time 3 times, only got a picture of it twice because one got off before I could get the camera out of my pocket.
Kirby if you eat trout man you should hit it up... I might be out there tomorrow after work (7am) with a buddy of mine. Hopefully the wind still up and have thme pushed down there again.
Here is the littlest one I caught.
Here is the biggest one I caught.
This is about average size... notice how fat they are.
