Struck Out at Bethany Lakes Today

Struck out today but did get one to strike on a Gold Super Duper. Saw others doing well using Super Dupers sight casting to feeding fish. Also, saw one fisherman take one on a Bubble Fly Rig.

Sent a report in to StockerTroutFishing.com... looks like they already posted the report... "Super Dupers and Bubble Fly Rigs at Bethany Lakes"!

Fast Web Admin... also like the info about River Park in Fort Worth... "Trinity River Trout Stockings at River Park"! Have seen some nice sized Trout caught from River Park.

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.

PS: Report is posted on; here is the link - December 20, 2014 report. Like how they added the Bubble Fly Rig information and the Trout Derbies at Waterloo... Great job Web Admin!

Partner Website - "Stocker Trout Fishing"...

The Team started a new website titled - "Stocker Trout Fishing".  Here is a snippet of the first post welcoming Readers. Do give it a read when you get a chance!

Welcome Readers!
WRITTEN BY: TRTFSHNG84 - DEC• 17•14
Welcome Readers to Stocker Trout Fishing – a website started in partnership with the COAF Field Team!  The COAF Field Team (aka Field Team) is a group of avid fishermen located in the city of Allen, Texas.

They kicked off their effort by starting the City Of Allen Fishing Weblog to document online fishing trips to area community lakes and ponds. The fishing trips later expanded to other lakes (including larger lakes), rivers in Oklahoma and Texas, and the Texas Gulf Coast.

For this effort, the Field Team intends to collate information about fishing for stocked Rainbow Trout – specifically, in North Texas with emphasis on local ponds stocked in Collin County.

In addition, the Field Team will include fishing reports for trips across the border to Oklahoma’s Blue River, Lower Mountain Fork River, and Honey Creek (in Turner Falls Park) as well as fishing trips to the Guadalupe River in New Braunfels, Texas.


Moreover, the Field Team plans to post information found online that may be useful to Readers interested in fishing for stocked Rainbow Trout!

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!

Central Park Pond This Round

On the road today. Stopped in College Station for a quick stop. Took the 4 weight fly rod out and started casting for Trout.

Struck out but did see others hook up while there. Water was murky and although the pond was stocked Friday, talked with others who noted that the bite was slow.

Fished for about an hour without a strike. Did see one Trout caught but was not able to get video. Then, prior to leaving, saw another Trout caught. Was able to get some video of it.

Till next time!

More Fishing Fun for Blue River Rainbow Trout

Fished the Blue River today. Got to fish the new 5 Weight Fly Rod; like the feel when casting and it's much lighter than the other 5 Weight Fly Rod!

Was able to limit out using a White Near Deere, Olive Near Deere, and a Tandem Rig Near Deere and Midge. Also, had one take a COAF Guadalupana.

Cool temps and overcast but still a fun time on the River! Used a quick retrieve, slow drift, as well as a strike indicator to get strikes.

Had to call it quits early; won tickets from KHYI 95.3 Range for the Wade Bowen Concert tonight at Southern Junction. Significant Other wants to go; therefore, I go.... "Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner"!

Back To Turner Falls For More Trout

Here is a follow-up video to our Podcast from yesterday's trip to Turner Falls Park for Rainbow Trout. Video has been edited but is over eight minutes long; lots of action though!

Limited out with five; caught and released a lot more. Saw a Bruiser too that just did not want my fishing fly. Good news... the Rainbow Trout that we kept were larger overall than last week's trip!

Fishing flies used were a White Near Deere and an Olive Near Deere. Most fish caught were on the Olive Near Deere. Did try Midges, GRHEN, San Juan Worm, and an Egg Pattern. No luck with them.

Fun stuff!

Turner Falls This Round

Tried a new place this round. Headed to Davis, Oklahoma to Turner Falls Park. The River was stocked recently with Rainbow Trout; decided to give it a try.

Nice scenery with a Waterfall area and a River that is easily accessible since there is a street and sidewalk area that runs alongside it.

However, don't be fooled by the park like setting, the pools, pockets, and riffles offer the same challenges when fishing other Rivers. There is a rocky bank to contend with, else it is a fisherman friendly river.

Even better, the fish were in a biting mood! Lost count after twenty, limited out with five (park limit is five trout), three were nice sized ranging from 14"-16" in size.

That said, had already limited out, so the two larger ones were caught and released.

Used an Olive Near Deere to catch most of them, and then switched to a White Near Deere after running out of Olive. Two largest went for the White Near Deere.

Fun stuff... there is a Park Entrance Fee ($16.00 plus tax). However, given the chance at a Bruiser or two, the ease of access, the really nice Restrooms (heated, too), and only saw two other fishermen all day, was okay with it!

Quick Trip This Round with the Switch Rod....

Rain and other commitments had us sidetracked today. No worries; went for a quick trip to Bethany Lakes this round. Brought the Switch Rod and tied on the Tandem Rigged Near Deere and GRHEN setup that worked well on the Blue River in Oklahoma.

Things were promising with a nice Bass hooked but lost when it broke the line. After a few more casts, had another one take but this time it threw the hook. Finally, third time was a charm... hooked and landed a Bass.

So, this round two misses and one Bass! Fun stuff!
