Rockport Report
#1
Finally mad it up to drown a worm or two Sunday 10/26. After trying several places along the shore and the river, I ended up at the dam. Not a nibble using my old standby worm and marshmellow (ussually knocks em dead). some fellow fisherman were fishing right off of the dam and catching some nice ones using orange powerbait. I didn't have any all orange powerbait but the rainbow that I had in my box had a mostly orange color to it, so I gave it a try.

Riged up a bubble full of water and about 18 inches of leader below the swivle and gave it a throw out. As soon as it hit bottom and I was taking up the slack, BAM, a nice little 12 incher. I caught one other about 15 inches about 20 to 30 minutes later.

After that it kind of died off so I packed up and headed for home. I usually only catch one or two anyway because I'm the only one in my family that like to eat trout so anymore than that I kind of a waste.

Only the 15 incher had a couple of the little sore's on it but the little one did not have any on it. The water is still up and there were some boats on the water.

All in all. A good day of fishing.

Ya know, it was kind of hit and miss. The three guy's fishing off of the dam were knockin em dead while the people fishing between me and them were getting skunked. I was catching fish while the guy to the other side of me said he had been there for over an hour with nothing. Guess it was just skill (not really, just dumb luck).

yeah, the guy by the dam always gets his limit and more. He said that he lived 10min away from there. Did cast sideways across but farther out in the middle from where you were casting? He was feeding a mink with trout guts once that I saw. Next time I'm bringing my 12x binoculars down to check out his rig.
