Fishing
Stocked Trout are Big & Hungry, Part 1
McDevitt has been stocked with some of the biggest trout the pond has had in a while. They aren't the brooders, but they are bigger than usual and a lot of fun. My day was made when I hooked into my first trout on my first cast. The rest of the day, while not perfect, was a blast.
Trout’s Back on the Menu, Part 1
Back at McDevitt Pond, but this time, the trout are back, and they are chunky. Had some trouble holding onto these thicker trout and threading the needle between the weeds. It turned into a great day with a good number of beautiful rainbow trout.
When There’s No Trout, Part 1
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.
First Time Fishing Here in the Morning, Part 1
Back at Browns Pond, but this time in the morning. This is my first time fishing this pond in the morning. Can I get more fish in the morning rather than the evening? Let's find out together.
This Pond Always Produces, Part 1
I made my yearly trip to McCall and fished this legendary pond. The little hike loses a lot of people, but once you get here, the fishing is worth every step. Due to the number of fish, I'm going to split this trip into four parts. Please enjoy. If you ever visit this pond, it is worth stopping at.
