Ethan's First Maryland Rainbow Trout

Type: Nontidal
Region: Eastern
Location: Unicorn Branch

My son Ethan (14) caught his first Maryland rainbow trout (14 inches) on Monday, President's Day while fishing in the Unicorn Branch (spillway and stream below Unicorn Lake). He was using a corn yellow power bait on a #13 treble hook with a split shot. Please remember this spot has a bag limit of 2 fish per person.
