Hi Guys! Well I was bored and decided to just take a ride with my Gordon Setter (MacDonough). Nice sunny day (42) and let puppy run at the Peoples Park next to the west branch of the Farmington River. We both had a good time. On the way home, stopped at the little stream that runs under the road right near the house. (Have fished it before and caught only suckers.) Just happened I had one of my ice jigging rods with me already rigged with a small green glow Hali. Tipped the hook with a Gulp Alive Waxie and dropped it over the bridge railing and about 2 ft. down. Jigged it 3 times then "BAM :!: ", Hooked into a Big Brookie :!: I estimated he went 2 lbs. maybe a little over. To say I was shocked is an understatement :!: Released him and went back to jigging again. About 5 minutes later -> again "BAM :!: " .... Another Brookie a little smaller. Released him! Jigging again........This time I got 2 jigs in and "BAM :!: " ......Yeap! You guessed it ......a 3rd Brookie :!: This one about the same size as the second. Released him! Back to jigging ......... After 10 minutes.....Nothing!.....So I went home which took me less than a minute. "Too Bad" the stream trout fishing ended yesterday (2/28/10)......Me and the wife could have had a nice Native fish dinner. "Have to play by the Rules!" Nice to know that stream has native Brookies :!: And I can walk to it in 2-3 minutes of the house :!: SWEEEEEET :!: Very Happy! SeaDog1

Hi BT! Yeah! Your right! But who would have thought there were Brookies in there! This is just a swamp run-off stream. Guess where I'll be come Opening Day :!: :D While everyone is trying to catch stockies...... I'll be after wild natives :!: :lol: Just want a couple of nice size ones for dinner. I know they have to be bright orange inside :!: THE BEST! ....... YUMMY! :D Happy SeaDog1
