Been on vacation this week, and did a lot of fishing. Tried a few lakes I haven't fished in a while, last 2 days back to Goodwin. Yesterday I trolled all morning with no success. Today went back to anchoring up and bottom fishing. Action was steady enough to keep me there. rated this a 5 because of the 1 real quality 21 inch 4.12 pound rainbow. Got it just as I was thinking that I was done for the day, hadn't had a bite in some time. I actually had just grabbed the rod to reel it in. Soon as I touched it, the rod tipped slammed. Fun fish on the little 5 1/2 foot trout rod. The day was a 3 star day until that last fish.

3-16 inch fish, and the 1-21 inch. Quality fish and meat again. I moved around a bit until I found some willing fish.

Enjoyed your video.
Is your Yak, a Hobie PA14?

Quadfather - yeah it's a Pro Angler 14. I absolutely love it. No fishery that I have wanted to do that I can't with it. I've trolled/pedaled for 8+ hours before without feeling tired (I knew it though once my feet hit the ground). Sometime this winter I am going to add a second downrigger.

Thanks fisherman92. I've definitely put my time in there. The other 3 are actually nice 16 inch fish, but they don't look it next to that pig.

Very nice! I've hooked into a couple of big trout like that over the years at Lake Goodwin but never managed to get them into the net. Some day... Love the video.

Nice fish and video. I've gotten a couple nice fish out of there years ago trolling leadcore behind my Hobie PA. The only thing I don't like about Goodwin is paying the launch fee. :)

If you go enough $70 for an annual pass isn't bad.

That is a real nice catch. Not much rainbow on that guy. But beautiful fish.
