North Country Angler - pre-spawn brook trout

Remote pond madness provided a quality pre-spawn brook trout. (STEVE ANGERS PHOTO)

It is no secret that this angler spends a chunk of time searching out wild brook trout on remote ponds. A remote pond is classified as a water body that requires hiking in for access. These ponds are fished using float tubes as the mode of fishing. Before float tubes, hardy anglers would carry canoes into these jewels.

Once carried into a pond, the canoe would stay on the shoreline for use. Canoes closer to the road were chained to a nearby tree. Canoes further away from the road were chain-free and made available for any angler who made the trek into the remote waterbody.
