Great Day at Brady's Run

    Two days ago, Vinny and I (Adam) decided to try Brady's Run for some preseason trout fishing. I was looking forward to using my new Quantum Ultra-Light for the first time.
    We got to the park around 8am and started fishing the middle of the stream that flows directly into the lake. We threw trout magnets and pink powerbait worms and it wasn't too long until Vinny reeled in a nice little rainbow. Then the fishing slowed down so I decided to change my approach while Vinny tried some different parts of the stream.
    I ended up switching to my one "go-to" bait for trout fishing... That is Salmon Peach Glitter Powerbait! After I threw that on a hook with one split shot as weight, I was sure I'd get into some trout. I casted out close to a branch in the water by a deep hole. Within 5 minutes I had something tugging my new Ultralight rod towards the water. I quickly ran over and reeled in a nice rainbow. I continued doing this for about 2 hours and ended up catching 7 rainbow trout. Then we switched spots and I caught one more on a spinner. While I was doing this, Vinny tried the whole section of stream coming up empty handed...
                                                        
  I had to leave at 11am but Vinny stayed and fished the whole afternoon. He fished his fly rod with different nypmhs and caught one rainbow and a nice sucker.


Then after the fishing slowed, he finally decided to switch to powerbait and ended up landing 5 more fish. All in all, we had a very successful day out at Brady's Run park catching 16 fish in all.
