See How I Limited Out Using Visual Cues Despite Freezing (Edited) Temps #mobile #fishing #livestream

Mobile Fishing Livestream 52 (Edited Video)

Edited version of the Mobile Fishing Livestream where I fish for trout at a pond in Denison, TX. Limited out on stocker Rainbow Trout but had to deal with icy rod guides and cold hands. Luckily, the Guadalupana Fishing Fly with and without an indicator were keys to success!

Keeping It Simple, One Fishing Fly To Limit Out #fishing #flyfishing #trout

Plan was to fish Waterloo Park Pond in Denison with Centerpin Combo but switched last minute to a One-Handed Spey Fly Fishing Combo that used the  OPST Commando Head 175grn on a 4wt, 8ft fly rod.

Cold and windy morning, I decided to keep it simple and use on fishing fly - an Olive Near Deere. I would adjust my retrieve and depth until I limited out.

Do check out the video where I find the pattern limit out!

Note: I used a 175grain OPST Commando Head not a 200grain as mentioned in the video.

Dry Flies at Waterloo This Round (Feb 15, 2015)

Fun time in Denison today. Nuclaroche and I fished Waterloo Park Pond. After a lot of missed hook sets to rising trout feeding on little, black bugs, we figured out the pattern - a COAF Griffith's Gnat in Size 16!

The Trout started out taking dry flies on a dead drift but as the wind picked up and the insects started "skittering" on the surface more, the Trout were wanting more movement on the dry fly.

Fun day, especially being able to catch them on dry flies. Also, had lots of fun casting and catching fish using the COAF Micro Fly Rod!

Another Front On the Way [1-06-2015]

Originally published January 6, 2015

Noticed the weather forecast is warning of another cold front arriving this week. Looks like cold temps and wintry precipitation is likely. Moreover, no reports from the Field Team. Suspect they are hot and heavy working their day jobs to "mess" with fishing.

No worries for this Blogger... or as Glenn  calls me, "The Weblog Admin". That said, since I am a volunteer and don't get paid, I do like being referenced as "The Weblog Admin"!

So until the next report, here is picture that the Team sent. From his notes, it sounded like the birds return each year to Waterloo in Denison!

Team Limited Out at Waterloo [1-03-2015]

Originally published January 3, 2015

Received an update from the Team... limited out at Waterloo! 

• Two went for the GRHEN on a Tandem Rig Near Deere and GRHEN.
• Remainder went for PowerBait. 

Overall, it looked like a number of fishermen limited out. Bait seemed to outdo lures. No worries, Good thing our fishing buddy figured out the pattern this round and had PowerBait ready to go!

Saturday Morning…? [1-03-2015]

Originally published January 3, 2015

Saturday morning... Looks like the rain is letting up. Checked the local ponds and noted water levels are up.

Have not heard from the Team about the action at Bethany Lakes but will post an update as soon as they report in.

That said, here is a picture showing the water is flowing at Bethany Creek Pond (just up the road from Bethany Lakes)!

Water is flowing!

Fished Waterloo In Denison This Morning [12-28-2014]

Field Team reported a limit of Trout caught at Waterloo Park Pond in Denison. One member struck out but did get a couple of strikes. Overall, cold temps slowed the action down but did pick up as the day warmed. 

Key notes this round:

• Catfish were striking PowerBait
• BH GRHEN fished 2′-3′ under an indicator were getting strikes in the morning (overcast and cold)
• As the sun came out, bite turned off for the BH GRHEN
• Heard from others that Near Deere were getting bit later in the day

Video clip below shows the action on the BH GRHEN:

Bethany Lakes in Allen

Reports from the Team indicated the action Saturday morning was steady for some while slow for others. In the Team's case, one Rainbow Trout fell for an Olive Wooley Bugger at Bethany Lakes in Allen. 

Key notes from the morning round were:

• Slow retrieve and/or stop and go retrieve seemed to work
• Casting spoons like Super Dupers in Gold and Silver and Mini-Jigs were getting strikes
• Bubble Fly Rig cast to fish feeding near the surface were getting strikes
• Fish were also taking PowerBait and PowerWorms
• Action was steady initially but tapered off with the exception of the Bubble Fly Rig.
• Action remained steady for the rig (see the section titled Bubble Fly Rig in the article "Texas Rainbow Trout Fishing - Community Lakes")

Waterloo Park Pond in Denison

Saturday afternoon the action picked up when the Team headed to Waterloo Park Pond in Denison. The Team limited out using an Olive Near Deere, Copper Super Duper, and a Power Bait. 

Key notes from the afternoon round were:

• Near Deere was getting strikes as it sank slowly on no retrieve
• Super Duper was also getting strikes as it sank slowly or when fished slow
• Fish were also taking PowerBait, PowerWorms, Corn, and Salmon Eggs

PS: The city of Denison posted a sign advertising their upcoming trout derbies. Three are planned; for more details of Denison's trout derbies as well as other trout derbies, check them out in the FAQs section of StockerTroutFishing.com.  It is listed under Trout Derbies.

First Fish for 2021!

Was out and about today. Too nice a day to stay indoors. Decided to make a quick trip to Waterloo Pond while passing through Denison today. Was hoping for a limit but it was not the case. That said, yours truly caught his first fish for 2021… a little trout that went for a Tandem Rigged Near Deere and GRHEN. Trout went for the GRHEN! Great start to 2021!

Kickoff 2015 with Two Limits at Waterloo

Tough Go This Round at Waterloo

Headed up to Denison this morning. Tough go this round at Waterloo Park Pond. Two of us fished, but only one of us limited out.

Took a while to figure out the pattern; turned out a BH GRHEN under a strike indicator did the trick at least for Fshng84. NucLaroche had a couple of missed hook sets, else he struck out.

Still a fun time despite the cold temps. Video/report posted at StockerTroutFishing.com!

From the Field Team... Saturday.

Made it to Bethany Saturday morning. Was able to get one on a Wooley Bugger. Others were doing well with Super Dupers, Bubble Fly Rig, and Mini-Jigs. PowerBait was working, too.

Called it a trip for the morning to take care of Honey Do's but later, got a call from NucLarcohe to fish Warerloo. Fished Waterloo and two of us limited out!

Fun day, sent report to our Partners at StockerTroutFishing.com... should see more details later today.

Waterloo This Round

Fished Waterloo Park Pond in Denison this morning. It rained off and on while we were there but luckily it was not a downpour. Was able to get a round of fishing in without rain gear.

Caught and released a number of Trout using an Olive Near Deere. Did run out of them; switched to a Wooley Bugger and a also a COAF Guadalupana with a strike or two but no hook ups.

Did limit out with five; luckily was able to get the last two Trout to take a Tandem Rig Olive Wooley Bugger and a GRHEN. Both times the Trout went of the GRHEN.

Did miss not having a Near Deere; will tie more later! Overall, was a great day fishing!

Two Limits at Waterloo This Time

Back for one more go at Waterloo.  Brought a Buddy along and fished with COAF Guadalupanas.  Both of us limited out with a lot more missed strikes than hook sets!  Fun stuff on a warm January day!

Limited Out Waterloo Again!

Short on time and itching to wet a line; headed back to Waterloo in Denison for a limit of Trout. Lucked out and managed to get a limit using a COAF Guadalupana!  Pattern was different; had to change the retrieve several times.  There was not clear pattern that worked... fast, slow, wait so many counts.  Still had a great time!

LLELA and then Waterloo This Round

Checked out LLELA this morning.  Struck out but did see others catching Trout.  Looked likes a few nice sized ones mixed in with the Stockers! Seemed like the PowerBait Power Worms were the ticket.

Afterwards, headed to Denison to have some fun catching tonight's dinner!  Limited out using a Size 10 COAF Guadalupana.  Had to try different retrieves and adjust when the Trout started getting picky.  Fun stuff!

Back to Waterloo... COAF Guadalupana Does Well!

More fun at Waterloo in Denison.  Missed the Youth Trout Derby but did not miss out on the stocked Trout!  Windy day but the Four Weight Rod did its job; limited out using size 14 COAF Guadalupana!  Fun stuff!

Waterloo and the Guadalupana Do Well This Round

Went to Waterloo Saturday afternoon.  Fished the four weight fly rod and a COAF Guadalupana in a Size 12.  Caught and released a number of Rainbow Trout.  Kept five to make a limit.  Did see others hooking up on Silver Super Dupers. Nice day to go fishing!

Light Strikes at Waterloo This Round

Headed to Denison Saturday afternoon and fished Waterloo.  Recently stocked in preparation for the Trout Derby held that morning; the bite was steady.

Three of us fished and managed to take three limits.  NucLaroche and T-Bone caught them on PowerBait and Ultralight Gear.  Fshng84 fished a COAF Guadalupana and a Four Weight Fly Rod.

The strikes were light but the Team did manage to take five each! Even caught one of the tagged Trout from the Derby!  Fun stuff!
