Tough Go at Frisco Commons Today

Finally able to wet a line today.  Fished Frisco Commons this afternoon; the pond was stocked this morning and the City held its annual kid fishing derby.

Tough go today.  Fish seemed in shock, staying near the bank and were lock jawed at times.

After several looks at a Guadalupana, finally had one take the fishing fly.  Switch Rod worked out well; was able to make long switch cast (and roll cast) with ease.  Too bad distance did not matter today.

Then, switched to an Ultralight Rig and a Silver Kastmaster; had tried a Gold Super Duper, a Copper Super Duper, and a White Roostertail without a bite.  Looked like silver was the color of choice today.

Tried casting the spoon, used a steady retrieve, a stop and go retrieve, as well as a count down before reeling in.  No luck... what worked?  Jigging the lure up and down like when ice fishing. As a school would pass, one or two would show interest, the remainder would keep going by.

Later, jigging up and down, and then slowly moving the lure away would get one or two to break from where the school was "holed" up, and then a light strike and hook up would follow.

Fun stuff... was different seeing so many Trout so close to the bank; even got some underwater video of a school or two going by!

One On a Gold Kastmaster This Evening.

Work definitely gets in the way of fishing but did manage a quick trip to Bethany just before dark set in.  Saw a few Trout rising; brought a Gold Kastmaster and a Silver Super Duper.  Caught one Trout on the Kastmaster, else nothing else.  Ended up giving it away, adding to another fisherman's stringer of two!

More Trout Fishing at Bethany - Three in the Morning and One in the Afternoon.

Fished Bethany this morning.  Caught one on a Gold Kastmaster and two on Orange Powerbait.  Others were catching Trout and looked like limits were being taken!  Called it quits around 11AM.

After knocking out some personal business (another word for chores), stopped by Dick's Sporting Goods to use up a $10 Rewards Card.  Restocked the tackle box with Super Dupers, a Silver Kastmaster, and Terminal Tackle.

Then, hit Bethany again in hopes of catching two more Trout.  Caught only one but was larger than the ones caught in the morning.

Did see others catching them on Power Bait and Lures!  Looked like more limits were being taken to include the two nice looking stringers in the picture below!  Nice job guys!

Only One Again This Round

Started to fish with the intent of fishing the morning but work and other things called the morning outing short.  Fished for about an hour with no strikes, then had to leave.

Came back in the afternoon and fished until 5PM with a Fishing Buddy.  Had two nibbles on Powerbait and one on Corn but no hookups.  Did see Trout rising around "4:30ish", switched to a Super Duper and a Kastmaster.  Caught one Trout again this round.

Action was slow but did see a few Trout being taken; missed the early morning bite but suspect the action was better than the latter morning and afternoon.
