Hathaway Pond Barnstable, MA Fishing Report

An Exciting Day Of Firsts

I took a trip down to the Cape to do some fishing. I had a target species in mind, though I did not expect to catch it. I used small minnows and powerbait eggs. Almost immediately, my minnow got a bite and I hooked and lost what I believed to be my target species, much to my disappointment. I eventually changed spots on the pond, and I immediately hooked and landed my first largemouth bass of the year, which was a nice, healthy 2 pounder. On the very next cast, I hooked up again, this time with a smaller fish. I could see the fish rolling on the surface. It appeared silvery brown and very thin, which led me to believe I had once again hooked my target species. Sure enough, as I looked at the fish, it was exactly what I was looking for, my first Tiger Trout! The tiger was only 9 inches long, so a very small fish, but I was more than happy. After a few pictures, I released the little tiger trout to fight another day. I cast out another minnow, and caught another largemouth bass. Afterwards, there was no more action for the day.
