| 24" 4-1/2 lb Splake and Esther |
The fishing season is off to a great start in Maine! It was an early spring this year so we headed north last weekend which is really early for us. The bass fishing is slow since the water is still cold so we put into a pond that has trout and bass and I was rewarded with this 4-1/2 pound Splake. I was thrilled. I have never caught such a large trout, since I typically fish for bass. I was using a crawfish crankbait which I had used successfully at Wachusett reservoir a few years ago and it paid off big time for me now.
This was the only bite I had for the whole afternoon. As we headed in my husband got a hit. He was hoping for a trout as well, but he landed a huge largemouth bass instead - 4.25 lbs, 19" long. So we both went home very happy.
