STOCKER TROUT FISHING

Welcome to Stocker Trout Fishing!

Checkout our blog at Stocker Trout Fishing!

Our intent is to collate information about fishing for stocked Rainbow Trout – specifically, in North Texas. In addition, we will include fishing reports when we make a dash across the border to Oklahoma, take road trips to the Guadalupe River in our home state of Texas, and on local trips to stocking locations in North Texas. Moreover, we plan to post information we hope is useful to Readers interested in fishing for stocked Trout!

Also, the Winter Trout Stocking Season in Texas typically runs from late November/December to early March. Do check back in the off season as we shift to warm water fishing and continue to post updates from the Field Team about fishing trips to local ponds, lakes, and rivers as well as the occasional run to the Texas Coast.

Do checkout our website and let us know how the fishing is in your area. We look forward to hearing from you! Good Luck and Good Fishing!

Sincerely, COAF Field Team

** Annual White Bass/ Sand Bass Run Fishing Guide Report, Tips, Videos, & Tricks **

Image
Another great guide report! TarponFly: Re: ** Annual White Bass/ Sand Bass Run Fishing Guide Report, Tips, Videos, & Tricks ** Report: Well, most all creeps in DFW are at their peak spawn now. The big schools of females have made their push up most creeks last week and the week before, and with this rain a lot of hybrids will show up as well. The next week to two weeks if you know what you're doing you should be able to get well over 200 fish days. PlanoKeith and I hooked up at the creek before the rains. Before I got there Keith was already at 103 Magnum Sandies. Took me less than 45 minutes to put 25 fat female mags on the stringer. The tent caterpillars are out now. Every 30 seconds one would drop on us. When we walk around and stop we would look at our shirts and we do have 10 or so crawling on us. I got home and took a shower and I could still feel them crawling on me. Creepy. The creek looked like it was sprinkling. But it was the Catapill...

Another Quick Trip... Trout Fishing Towne Lake in McKinney

Image
Really nice day! Still have video to edit but did limit out at Towne Lake in McKinney; caught but released five Rainbow Trout that went for an Olive Near Deere using the same setup as we used yesterday at Murphy – Corqs Strike Indicator and a Near Deere set 3 feet below it. Dead drift worked as well as a few short pull retrieves. Short on time but still a fun time… plus Charlie the Maltese Puppy got to see his first… hopefully many more to come, Rainbow Trout! Video still in the works; will post on our YouTube Channel when done. But, for tonight, we are chillin and grillin steaks and winding down this weekend!

Mardis Gras Near Deere Keeps Working

Image
More fun catching Bass on the fly with the Mardis Gras Near Deere. Caught ten this time in just under an hour. But, had to call it quits early to go on a pizza run for dinner. No worries… still beats working! Playing the next few days by ear; will see what the change in weather brings. Pattern that worked for us yesterday and today was a fishing fly that simulated a small bait fish 1-1/2 to 2″ in length. If not fly fishing, would go with a small Road Runner of Crappie Jig on a steady retrieve using Ultralight Spinning Gear.

Favorite Kayak Fishing Method... Anchoring?

Image
Our favorite kayak fishing method is simple and requires no special gear other than what you may already have on hand! It calls for anchoring your kayak near a lake point, and then fishing with shad. Let the fish come to you! Check out the video and do give it a try! #kayak #anchor #shad

Bass and Bluegill This Round

Image
Tested out a new fly pattern – no name for it yet. Caught a Bass and lost a Bass, then switched to damsel flies and caught Bass, Bluegill, and Sunfish.  Will tweak the new fly pattern more, and “test” it out again. Was good to see lots of fish near shore in their beds. Looked like the bigger Bluegill were further out from shore this year. Regardless, makes for some good fly casting practice for distance… Fun stuff!

Kayak Fishing : Texoma

Good to know!     hurricanecraig: Texoma Fished Texoma this morning from 6:30 until about noon. Water was 61 degrees. We launched at Eisenhower state park. I was trying to catch black bass but caught crappie and striper before I caught my first ever smallmouth before leaving. It was tiny. All in all we had a great time.     Retrieved from http://texasfishingforum.com/forums
