Caught so many, lost count.
« on: Feb 28, 2018, 05:02 AM »
I hadn’t been able to ice fish for two weeks due to work but when I got out yesterday I was happy to see there was still 20” of ice.
They usually do a fall stocking of brook trout there just before ice in but not this year. I’d been out twice a week since ice in, caught lots of browns and rainbows but not a single brookie until yesterday, non stop brook trout action and good sized ones  also. Flags were flying and I could watch them hit my jig. There were Times I was hooked up with my jigging rod and had two flags at the same time. I’m guessing they stocked sometime during my two week absence.

Mmmm brookies.
That's a great problem to have....catching so many you lose count. Love those days.

I saw a post in Facebook by fish and game with them stocking through the ice some place with excess 2 year old brookies
Born to fish, forced to work....

If it's the lake I think it is then it was stocked with surplus brookies last week.
