Trout Paradise

The best part I love about trout fishing is you know exactly where they are once the flies are out. While I was out today, trouts were feeding throughout the pond on flies hovering above the water. The best part was not fishing for them, but watching them jump full-body out of the water to catch the flies. Sometimes one at a time, or sometimes multiple trouts are soaring through the air. They would literally jump right by the dock next to you, just to catch a two-centimeter fly. These fish definitely take advantage of both air and water to catch their next meal. Times like this makes me miss topwater fishing, but bass season is right around the corner, and I’ll have myself some topwater action.
