My First Rainbow
Type: Freshwater
Region: Central
Location: Northwest Branch of the Potomac
My son William went on his very first trout trip and his very first catch in the Northwest Branch by the mill in Adelphi, MD. He fought for 5 minutes and surprisingly I thought his fishing rod would have giving out on him, but he landed this 16.5 inch Rainbow.

Happy Trout Fishing
Type: Freshwater
Region: North Central
Location: Deer Creek
I went out pretty late Saturday for some trout fishing up Deer Creek. (Thank you DNR for stocking) Not expecting a lot since it was teaming with fisherman of all kinds due to open season. I was very impressed that the trout were not all completely spooked by the time I got to my spot. With thousands of different baits being tossed at them, I found that yellow cheese power- bait worked the best… I caught 4 in 4 hours and had a great time walking the river… Great Times!

Trout Fishing on the Patapsco
Type: Freshwater
Region: Central
Location: Patapsco River
I had a very cold, but also very enjoyable opening day for trout on the Patapsco River. Sub-freezing temps did not stop the diehards. The light shined (barely) over the trees, and the bite was on. Good time, good friends, good fishin'.
