[quote wiperhunter2]OK, that makes sense, [#ff0000]the pig has never been that good for trout fishing[/#ff0000] but planting 10" trout would likely make a difference.[/quote]
I have to disagree with that comment, porcupine in the eighties was incredible, we used to catch full limits of 20+" cutthroats up there. It used to be so good, but then they got trendy with all the splake and etc. and ruined what used to be a great lake... Of coarse that was back in the days of seasonal fishing with no winter or ice fishing so who knows what put the hurt on the lake, but it was a great pond in those days... Still find one of those nice cuts every once in a while.. But I guess that's when Newton was a great trout pond too, so things change... Later J
