New Pond - Great Fall Trout, Part 1
This was my first time visiting this pond. Normally, when I visit the McCall area, I fish the airport pond, but I have started testing the waters for some other areas, and this pond did not disappoint. They stock this pond with Chinook Salmon in July, so I figured I would catch some trout and, if lucky, maybe hook into a salmon. Sadly, no salmon, but the trout were all 12-14 inches and a blast to catch.
Fall Trout Fishing Begins
With the falling leaves comes the restocking of the rainbow trout in our local ponds and waterways. I was thrilled to see that it finally happened after the first scheduled stocking came and went without any trout being deployed to our ponds. It was wonderful to finally catch some trout again.
When There’s No Trout, Part 6
I went to the local pond nearest my home to see if there were any holdover trout from the summer. Since Idaho Fish & Game doesn't stock the ponds during summer, it isn't easy to catch any trout. Most ponds are depleted from fishing and from predators like Cormorants and Ospreys. When that happens, you move on to catching panfish and, hopefully, a bass or two.
