Recent Catches At Sterling Pond
Ryan Jones
Caught the most colored up brook trout I've ever caught today. Caught around 20 fish total, including a 12 incher, the beautiful 10 inch male, and a 14 incher to end off the day, right after my phone died. They were a lot of fun on the 3 weight. Started off casting a brown caddis, but I switched over to a stimulater and one of the 16 p-tails I tied on friday which absolutely slayed these fish. This lake is 100% stocked fish, and they do this by taking fish up the Smugglers Notch chair lift. Some of these fish were really deformed, with gills hanging out and messed up jaws. The last fish went for my stimulator 4 times before taking the p-tail. I was wondering how he kept missing it, but I don't think he could open his mouth wide enough. Beautiful fall day with some snow on the ground, and an awsome pond that I will definitely be back to.
