Splake Trout in Copperas Pond
We received this email tip from of our readers and wanted to share it.
Copperas pond in Essex County in up state new york has large splake trout in it. Apparently the local fishing guides don't normally mention this. Our reader reports that he caught a 3 plus pounder there and hooked into a larger fish which snapped his 8-lb test line.
We'd love to hear from other trout anglers who have tried their luck at Copperas pond.

Trout Fishing Opens on April 1st in New York
The wait is over, trout fishing season will officially in New York State tomorrow. Fishing is expected to be good this year. However, many of the popular areas are still covered in ice and snow, so you'll want to be careful when fishing from icy banks.
Anglers may also be in for a bit of a surprise this Spring. Record flooding last June has resulted in much of the landscape surrounding changing in popular fishing spots. Old pools have been filled with gravel and new pools have been carved out. The fish are still there, but may be in a different place than expected now. So you'll have to pay attention to where fish may be holding.
