Good Action at Towne Lake this Morning!


Fished the morning bite at Towne Lake in Mckinney.  Went with Powerbait and hooked up with four fairly quickly.  Did miss a number of strikes, too.

Switched to fly fishing gear after catching the fourth Trout; did not get a strike.  So, went back to bait and caught the last one on the first cast.

Fun stuff!

Steady Action for Trout at Towne Lake


Fished the Trout Derby; limited out using Powerbait.  Caught four in less than hour, and then took another hour to get the last one.  Cold temps, so decided to head home and cook them up on an open fire and iron skillet!

Tasty brunch, but not enough to slow us down.  Returned to Town Lake for some catch and release action using Fly Fishing Gear.  Ended up catching more on a Gold Ribbed Hares Ear Nymph by the bridge.  Fun stuff!

Limit Taken at Towne Lake but....

Fished the latter part of this morning for Trout at Towne Lake.  Caught a limit in about two hours.  Had steady action, just a lot slower than it was last week.  Even worse, the Cormorant have shown, so the bite may get even slower.  All were caught using Rainbow Glitter Powerbait!

Another Limit Tonight at Towne Lake...

Made it to Towne Lake just as it was getting dark.  Caught two Trout in short order on Rainbow Glitter Powerbait, then the bite stopped right at dark.  Held out for about a half-hour, then managed to catch three more at a much slower rate.  Regardless, it's another limit.  And, this time, going to try a Lemon and Chili Paste Marinade and then saute them in olive oil!  Following the Dali Lama's advice... "cook with reckless abandon!"

Limit of Trout at Towne Lake.  Largest two went about 11".

Bite Still On at Towne Lake; Trout for Dinner!

Bite is still on at Towne Lake.  Caught a limit of five in less than 30 minutes using... guess what, Rainbow Glitter Powerbait!  Others using Powerbait were doing well.  Remember, use a slip sinker and small hooks - Sizes 14 - 16 work well.  After a quick cleaning, seasoned the fish and cooked them over coals on an iron skillet... tasty meal!

Action Still Hot at Towne Lake!

Late start this morning but was able to make it back to Towne Lake in McKinney for another chance at the Trout.  Yesterday's catch made for a tasty dinner.  Hoped today's catch would make a tasty breakfast.

Caught a limit in less than 20"; used Rainbow Glitter Powerbait. Good thing we stopped at Cabelas last night to restock on Powerbait and Power Worms.  Also, the Hair Rig seems to be making a difference in hookups... Less deep hooked fish!

Overall, it looked like Powerbait and Power Worms were getting bites.  A quick check of the stomach contents showed empty stomachs, bits of corn, or Powerbait.

Limited Out At Towne Lake In McKinney.... Nice Weather, Too!

Fished Towne Lake for another go at the Trout.  Trout were biting and easily limited out using Gold Superdupers and Glitter Powerbait.  Slow retrieve was the key when fishing the Superduper.  For Powerbait, minimize any drag on the bait as any weight felt resulted in dropped or stolen bait!

Observed a number of limits being taken with the Gold Superduper being the lure of choice! However, did catch several on a BH Olive Wooley Bugger; nice to know they are hitting flies, too!
