Quick Trip To Bethany This Round
Been practicing fly casting the past few days at Bethany. This round improved on the double haul and roll casts. Even caught a Bluegill, a Sunfish, and a little Bass! Fun stuff!

Bite Was On This Morning
Fished the morning bite at Frisco Commons. Trout were active, rising and feeding on the surface. Brought the 8-WT Flyrod this time to help gain more distance on the cast.
Quickly caught a limit of Trout using a Size 12 Guadalupana. Then, did some catch and release fishing... had catches using a Size 12 Guadalupana, Size 10 White Guadalupana, and then a Size 12 GRHEN!
Fun stuff... even better, made for a tasty Sunday Brunch!

Trout Bite Was On at Frisco Today!
Frisco hosted their annual Trick or Trout Derby today. Missed the derby but was able to fish the afternoon before the rain arrived. Was a tough go at first with the cold and wind. But, did manage to limit out!
Started casting the Four Weight Fly Rod despite the strong wind. Caught a little Stocker Trout and a little Bluegill. Also, had several missed strikes.
Switched to Powerbait and caught one Trout, then noticed the Trout started rising and schools were working the surface around the fountain.
Changed to a Copper Super Duper, added split-shot for more casting weight, and then casted for distance. Was able to limit out fairly quickly.
Fun stuff... saw others catching them on Super Dupers, Rooster Tails, Corn, and Powerbait. Action should be good for the next few days weather permitting!

Steady Bite at Bethany
A little windy this evening but made a go for Bethany. Was a steady bite of Bluegill using the Green Grasshopper Variant and the Guadalupana! Fun stuff on the Four Weight Fly Rod!

Pattern Changed....
Tied a White Damsel Fly Variant and tested it out a Bethany. Had one Bluegill take it solid, and then had others strike but no hookups. Switched to a White Grasshopper Variant and had a few more strikes, then called it quits at Bethany. Went across the street to Bethany Ridge and hooked a few Bluegill and Shellcracker. Pattern changed; suspect the cool front had something to do with it. Still had a fun time!

Bluegill and Bass at Bethany This Evening
Tied a Caddis Antron Nymph and headed to Bethany Lakes for a go at the Bluegill. As it turned out, the Bass preferred a White Guadalupana instead. Missed one Bass, and then caught three Bass from the Main Pond. Then, switched to a White Foam Rubber Spider Variant and started catching Bluegill and one more Bass on the surface! Great top water action!

Bluegills and Shellcrackers This Round!
Was able to sneak away and fish again this afternoon. Decided to fish Bethany Ridge (Kroger Park) this round. Used the 4-WT Flyrod and the Guadalupana and caught Bluegills and Shellcrackers! Fish were lurking about 30'-40' from shore and were taking the fishing fly lightly. Guessing about 15+ fish caught and released! Fun stuff!

Cold Morning; One Sunfish This Round
Fished Bethany this morning. Cold morning with temps in the mid-30's. Caught one Sunfish on a White Guadalupana; missed several others. Really light strikes made it tough to set the hook despite using a 4-Weight Flyrod. Things started to pick up by the time we left; Bass were beginning to chase baitfish in the shallows. Had several missed strikes using an Olive Wooley Bugger. May have to sneak away later and try for the Bass again!

Kroger Park Then Bethany Lakes Today!
Checked out White Rock Creek this morning. Did a little scouting along one of the feeder creeks with no success.
Decided to head back to Allen, then fished Kroger Park. Caught Bluegill and saw a Bruiser Bass looking like it was getting a spawning bed ready.
After catching a few Bluegill, went across the street to Bethany Lakes and managed one Bass and a Sunfish!
Used the Guadalupana, Gold Ribbed Hares Ear Nymph, and a Red Midge to catch the Bluegill. Used an Olive Wooley Bugger to get the Bass and the Sunfish.
Great day today; fun stuff!

Out and About Today
Nice day today. Decided to fish Bethany Ridge Park (also called Kroger Park). Caught little Bluegill using a Guadalupana and then a Zebra Midge.
Then, went across the street to Bethany Lakes. Caught one Sunfish in the canal; tried the Lower Pond, Main Pond, and Back Pond without a strike.
Finally, went to Davis Library in Plano and caught more Bluegill. Did see some Bass lurking but were unwilling to strike our fishing fly. However, one young fisherman caught a Bass using a Wacky-Rigged Plastic Worm!
Fun stuff!

More Fun at Waterloo!
Fished Waterloo this morning. Trout were active. Caught four Trout, fell in the water, then caught one more to make a limit. Caught and released more; all went for a fishing fly - Guadalupana!
Did get a few underwater camera shots; even got some action shots of the fall! Glad the camera is waterproof; had lost it in the pond for about 10" before recovering it while it was still filming.

More Fun at Waterloo
Too nice a day... went back to Waterloo for more fun catching Trout. Limited out with five Trout. Also, caught and released a good number as well. Trout were actively feeding; action was fast and steady. Saw a number of limits taken on Corn, Powerbait, Powerbait Worms, and Super Dupers!
In our case, used the Four Weight Fly Rod/Reel and caught them on the Guadalupana and a Gold Ribbed Hares Ear Nymph. Did get strikes with an Olive Wooley Bugger is size 10 but tended to miss the hookset. Had more success using the size 12 - 2X Streamer Hook that we use to tie the Guadalupana and the size 14 Scud Hook that we use for the GRHEN.
Still editing the video; will plan to post as soon as possible.
Update: Video of the action:

Long Day....
Fished River Park earlier today. Caught one Trout using Powerbait; others were doing well using Power Worms. Saw a number of Bruisers caught; really like the size Trout the Water District stocks in the river!
Later in the day, went to Denison and caught four more Trout to make a limit. Trout stocked this round were larger than earlier stocking in the pond. Then, did some catch and release fishing; lost count but caught and released a Trout on every other cast for an hour. Even left them biting.
Took some video, will post later... was a long day, too tired to edit the video. Still had a great time on a nice day to be outside!
Update: Here is the Video.

Quick Trip to Bethany... 2013
Made it to Bethany Lakes for a quick trip this morning. Gotta chance to try the new Four Weight Flyrod/Reel we picked up from Cabelas. Bite was slow but steady with a little Bass and several Sunfish caught before a cold front arrived! Used the Guadalupana to catch them this round; same fishing fly that worked on the Trout at Waterloo last weekend.

Two Limits at Waterloo to Start 2013!
Made it to Waterloo in Denison today for some trout fishing. Pond was stocked recently with more Rainbow Trout!
Fshng84 used the Ross Fly Reel we picked up from Cabelas the other day and mounted it on a Three Weight Rod. NucLaroche opted for an Ultralight Spinning Rod/Reel.
Two of us fished, and two of us limited out. One limit was caught using a Guadalupana; other one was caught using Rainbow Powerbait. Fun stuff... great way to start the new year!

Day Before Christmas at Huaco Springs
Fished the Guadalupe River at Huaco Springs. Great day, great temps, even slipped and fell into the river while wading. But, was able to keep fishing until a limit was taken! Brought Powerbait and Fishing Flies; looked like the Fishing Flies won this round - specifically, the Guadalupana - same one that worked well at Waterloo in Denison. Really liking the day use access to the River provided by a Freshwater Fishing License!

Windy Day at Waterloo....
Was a windy day at Waterloo; luckily the Rainbow Trout were not bothered by it. Steady action on the Guadalupana as well as Bread and Powerbait. Two of us fished; two of us limited out! Fun stuff!

Field Team Limited Out Again... Powerbait and Fishing Flies Worked!
Went up the road again to Denison for another round with the Rainbow Trout. Trout continued to go for Powerbait but not as aggressively compared to yesterday. This time it seemed fishing flies were the "go to" lure. They struck the Guadalupana, GRHEN, and Flashback GRHEN. Fun stuff... caught some, lost some, and kept some. Both NucLaroche and Fshng84 limited out. Too bad T-Bone and the Comal Kid missed the opportunity; no worries, we expect more to come in the next few weeks! Crossing our fingers of course.

Rainbow Trout at Waterloo
Fished Waterloo Park Pond in Denison. Caught Rainbow Trout using Powerbait in Rainbow Trout Glitter and the Guadalupana fishing fly. We managed to catch our limit with five Trout each; no Bruisers... just small Stockers but still a lot of fun especially on the flyrod.
Made a short video; had an issue with the video editing... two images instead of one. Something about 3D video. Was going to redo it for 2D but had already deleted the original video. Regardless, the video does give the sense that the pond is little and the Trout were biting!

Bluegill and a Bass at Kroger Park
Late start today,.... Went to Kroger Park again after tying another Foam Spider Variant. Caught several Bluegill, then lost the fishing fly to a snag. Went with a Guadalupana and had zero strikes until a little Bass hit it as it got dark. No Bruisers but still beats working!
