It's the day before the annual rainbow trout stocking at Bethany Lakes in Allen. The Team is anxious to wet a line and hook a little Stocker Trout!
However, this year the Team will miss tomorrow's fun as they will be attending a graduation ceremony back at Aggieland. The Team will be in full force in College Station to be sure it is no hoax but one of own is graduating!
That said, for those able to make it tomorrow, the Team suggested posting the video from last year's opening day at Bethany. The video is posted below; do check it out.
Key items from that day were:
- PowerBait worked initially but the action slowed but remained steady
- Gold Super Duper on a steady retrieve did not work
- Gold Super Duper on a stop and go retrieve worked
- Trout tended to strike as the lure fluttered down while stopped
Also, last year the weather was sunny and cool; this year it looks like rain and overcast conditions are expected. Not sure how it will affect the fishing; be prepared to switch baits and lures accordingly!
Till next time... Good Luck and Good Fishing!
