Took my son(5)& daughter(7) to fish their pond on 4/17!! We have 1acre pond in northern MD & stocked it last Sept. with all fingerlings. I need to thin out the numbers, so anything caught for now will be taken out. The kids had many hits but caught only 2. A 9.5" & 7.5" Brook trout.(They were 2-3" as fingerlings - I was surprised by their growth) Now we have to figure out how to land the LMB and Cats!! Our family had a great time!!
