Default Trout and fly-fishing-only ponds to open

CONCORD, N.H. -- Fishing in New Hampshire's designated trout ponds and fly-fishing-only ponds opens this year on April 28, 2012 (the fourth Saturday in April), offering anglers the chance to experience exciting fishing in some of the Granite State's most scenic surroundings. These ponds are managed specifically for trout, and fishing is allowed through October 15.

For a list of trout ponds and fly-fishing-only ponds in New Hampshire, as well as a description of special rules that apply to certain ponds, consult the 2012 New Hampshire Freshwater Fishing Digest, available online at http://www.fishnh.com/pubs/fishing.html or from any Fish and Game license agent when you buy your license.

It was a good opening day.

The fourth Saturday in April is the start of pond fishing season in New Hampshire. It’s also very close to this Beast’s birthday.
Traditionally the Beast eschews standard landlubber celebrations in favor of aquatic exertions. This time around we journey to Stone House Pond
in Barrington New Hampshire for Brook Trout. Stone House is spring-fed and very deep. The south side is bordered by granite cliffs that attract
assorted hippies from nearby University Of New Hampshire.



We caught about 20 trout in three hours.



Conditions were brutal, a 20 knot wind out of the north and high pressure. But the Brookies were in the mood.

And a good time was had by all – except for the Trout.
