Hockhockson Brook 4/19/11 - Lunch Break Trout!
Took the 15-minute drive from the office to the falls at Hockhockson Brook this afternoon on my lunch break. When I got there, the two other people fishing said that the truck just showed up 1/2 hour ago. Jackpot!
 One guy had to leave as soon as I started fishing. The other guy was alternating between spinners and power cheese.I started fan-casting a white Mr. Twister, caught one right away, then nothing for several minutes. Finally, I found the "spot within the spot" and started hooking up every other cast for the next 15 minutes. All brookies, ranging from 9-12 inches, all released in good condition. I fished for another 20 minutes, but it seems like I cleaned all the stupid ones out of there.  Me and the other guy left at the same time, he had two trout on his stringer.I was there for 45 minutes, and caught nine trout, most of which were in that 15-minute bonanza. Not too shabby for a lunch break, and it built up my trout-catching mojo in preparation for the West Branch this weekend.

Re: Hockhockson Brook 4/19/11 - Lunch Break Trout!
very jealous... that used to be a mile from my backyard and 20 minutes from my office, though I often went to yellow brook at lunch since even fewer people went there... because of the smaller amount of fish stocked.
used to love lunchtime trout...way to go (though somehow I can't get my mind around using the Hock as a prep for the West Branch LOL!!)
