NDOW has been stocking the urban ponds with rainbow trout since mid-November. The limit is three fish for urban ponds caught with a rod and reel. Best baits for the trout are night crawler pieces and PowerBait. Small fly patterns, such as Pheasant Tail and Hare’s Ear nymphs, are great on a fly rod or a couple of feet below a bobber. Also, a few catfish are being caught with night crawlers or chicken livers.
