Fished Wohlford again last week Friday.  I haven't been much of a fan fishing for trout, but this year I have a new found interest.  I never had much luck catching more than one trout in a single outing.

It took me all day but I finally managed to catch plural trouts.  I fished next to an old timer named 'Cap'.  He was giving me encouragement and tips all day.  He even gave me a rooster tail jig to try on my next outing.  What a cool dude. I'm sure I'll run into him out there again.  We all know what trout looks like.  So I didn't take much action shots.  Only the after shot in the fish container in my trunk.

Trout caught with power worms, in natural, white and yellow tipped with power bait garlic.  It was a great day.

Been hitting wohlford lately too. Closest to a limit I've gotten is four. Learned some new stuff though.

Nice trout Reid!  Good to see you getting out there on some trout. 
I've always enjoyed trout fishing, but I enjoy it much more now since the lakes started stocking bigger fish (instead of the usual 1 pounders) and fish with color in the meat! 
You can't catch them from your computer chair.

The trout I caught were all over 18", definitely better than the 1 pounders..

Steve, how often do you go to Wohlford?  LMK next time you make it out there.

Just been hitting it on the weekend when I get a chance. High surf advisory every Saturday is getting old.

Trout good eating?

Yeah it sure it. I won't eat a hatchery one though unless its a hold over..

Wild trout is the best.

Cutthroat is my favorite.

Anything similar to salmon. I notice the fillets look the same in Costco.

Salmon is comparable to trout but a little different. Don't see how someone could enjoy one and not the other.

Not sure how they got the fillets so pink considering they're farm raised.

At grocery stores they will ad color to farm raised salmon to make the fillets pinker.

Farm raised doesn't compare to wild caught period.
