Does anyone remember the Frontier Village in San Jose many years ago?  It was a frontier theme amusement park.  I remember going when I was young but don’t remember much about it except for the trout farm they had.  You rented fishing poles and fished out of a stocked pond of trout.  Almost guaranteed to catch something since the fish are not fed.  It was my first fishing experience and very exciting since I got to actually catch fish.  We could have caught fish all day but my Dad cut us off at a limit since you had to pay for each fish you caught.  I have been fishing many times since that first time, sometimes successfully sometimes not but I always remembered my first fishing experience at Frontier Village and how excited I was to catch a fish.  Fast forward 30 plus years later.  Last weekend I took my kids to a trout farm near Arnold.  Like Frontier Village it was a stocked trout pond.  More like a cement pond in someone’s back yard, but guaranteed fish just the same.  Here are some pictures of our catch.  Like my Dad I imposed a limit of 2 each before this fishing trip drained all my cash.  I don’t like fish that much.  I prefer sea bass or salmon but it was still fun.
