Since the Bluegill (Sunfish) bite has slowed down the off season trout stocking has been GREAT! Fished two stockings last week. The bite was slow at both stockings but did manage to catch the limit. I first fished the Live Oak Lake stocking. I arrived about two hours after the stocking truck put the fish in. I started with the Berkley Trout Bait-cheese colored. Did not get a bite after about an hour. I then switched to the gold Super Duper lure and was able to limit out the next hour. The next day I fished the Guadalupe River stocking. The river flow was very fast and the current was strong. The stocking truck arrived and put the fish in. It took me about four hours to limit out but it was a blast. I lost three fish as I was reeling them in. I also met several TFF'ers including Will aka 1960texan. We had a great chat and we watched a three pound Rainbow Trout swimming slowly by the bank. I caught my Guadalupe River limit using the Berkley Trout Bait-cheese colored. Fishing two trout stockings during the sunfish off season. It just don't get any better. fish

Nice trout Chuck. Was gonna hit Live Oak but decided to fish the Guadalupe for Crappie! Have you fished the Trail Race yet?

Nice report Chuck. You know, after we talked I went all over the place looking for a gold Super Duper and no one has any. I've tried Dick's, Cabela's and Gander Mountain so far. On to Academy.

Thanks Curtis and Will for the replies. cheers Curtis: I have not fished the Trail Race yet. Hope to fish it this season for sure. hooked Will: This time of year both the Gold Super Duper and the cheese colored trout bait are very hard to find. hide2 I usually stock up on them during early spring or right when they put out the trout baits in late summer. You can also order them! thumb

Nice fish Chuck. Live Oak Lake has been good to you over the years even during the trout stockings.



Side Note: Judging by your picture looks like there were not many anglers who showed up during the stocking. How have the crowds been?

Nice trout Chuck. I have not fished Live Oak Lake in over a year! Going to try to hit one of the remaining stockings.




Side Note: I had heard that Kayaks are now allowed on the main lake. Is it true? Have you seen any Kayaks on the lake? If anyone else knows feel free to answer! woot

Where have been the fewest anglers at a stocking you have been this year? Just curious.

I will not say where but I had been to two stockings this season where I have been the only one waiting for the stocking truck. There was one other when it was just me and another angler. thumb




Side Note: Over all the crowds have not been that bad! Met some GREAT people! rockon

Nothing beats having your own private stocking. Looks like the trout season is about over!
