I have a friend that attended a TU meeting in Saratoga this week. Their guest speaker was Brian O'Donnell who gave a presentation on fishing Adirondack Ponds. My friend sent me a summary of his presentation. Some of the more noteworthy info:
--58% of Brook Trout diet in ponds consists of Chironomids & Scuds
--Full sinking line recommended
--Floating line ok for fishing chironomids in shallow waters
--Fish steep sloping banks versus flats or gradually sloping banks. This focuses the forage in a narrower band and hence the fish as well.
I notice, judging from pictures that some of the more ardent brookie fishermen on this site seem to prefer streamers. I thought it might be interesting to weigh in on what you fish and how you fish it and how you approach a pond you haven't fished before.
