Fishing has been fair on Kinney pond. Fishing should pick up as stocking resumes with the warmer weather. The nice weather should really open up the pond this next week. Bait fisherman using crawlers and powerbait on the bottom should find some of the stocked trout. Fly fisherman slowly retrieving small woolly buggers should catch some of the cold water species during the warmest part of the day
