Howdy all,

Does any one know if there are any restrictions on where to fish at Houghton's Pond? I've never fished there but would like to give it a try this afternoon. I'll be targeting trout.

I ...

He was using powerbait.

I can't understand how he never even got a bite. The pond had been stocked just a few days earlier.

Have you ever fished there? Is it usually that hard to find trout in t ...

Howdy, y'all.

Was wondering if anyone on here ever fished Houghton's Pond.

My brother-in-law is trying to transition from saltwater fishing to freshwater. He wants to go after trout. He has the ...

As far as I know they stock it from the ramp in the main parking lot.

Someone once told me they sometimes alternate between the two ramps.

I'm pretty sure it's the other way around. The St Lawrence runs from the lakes to the ocean.

Anyway, the steelhead/rainbows need moving water to spawn. So whether they are stocked into a river or p ...

I guess I'll just stick with Horn Pond, then.

There are quite a few spots around the pond where you can go and be all by yourself for hours. And that's the way I like it.

Not exactly. My understanding is that they stock the tributaries of the Great Lakes with rainbows. Some of which then migrate to the Great Lakes only to return a few years later to spawn.

It's pret ...

What lucky said.

Steelhead are just rainbows that spend a couple of years in saltwater but goes back to freshwater to spawn.

Thanks again for the tips, guys.

Unfortunately, I'm shorebound which will for sure limit my catch rate.

Thanks for the replies, fellas.

TeamTrout, someone once suggested I use the pellets. I didn't really think it would work.

What color senkos do you find work better? I'm assuming you rig them un- ...

Thanks, Flymaster1.

Do you know if they've stocked any other pond/lake in the area?

What kind of lure/bait do you use for bass at Walden?

I have a bunch of spinners and a few spoons, all in the 1/4 - 1/2 oz range. I use them mostly for pickerel, but have caught a couple of smaller LM's on them, too.

That size range might be a little ...
