How much meat are on those trout they are stocking vs a 10" crappie? Thought about taking my daughter to one after they stock it.

I'd say comparable, maybe a little more meat on some of the better trout. Cool pics banker

Nice fish! What kind of retrieve do you employ with the super dupers?

Nice fish! What kind of retrieve do you employ with the super dupers? Slow and when you think you are going slow, go slower!

Thanks stretch,Reshelman, JigandJeep,Clayton,and Smurfs for the replies! Stretch: Three trout along with the sides fill me up! For their size they have some good meat on them. JigandJeep: Smurfs is right on the slow retrieve! I usually do a slow to medium retrieve.

Went to the local pond that was just stocked with trout and caught around 7-8. Most of them were only around 7-8"???? Is it common for this small of fish to be stocked? I figured we would get fish at least 12"? Now, I'm not complaining about catching some fish, it beats a skunk any day, just curious..
Keep on keepin' on

The trout used for the stockings come from Missouri and are shipped during the summer to the hatcheries in Texas. The smaller trout usually do not get the chance to grow any bigger. I usually throw the smaller ones back if they are not hooked badly and are in good condition before I release them. It seems to me the average length of the trout stocked by TPW are in the 9 to 10 range. I have caught a lot in the 11 to 12 inch range. It seems TPW stock the bigger fish later in the winter. Just my two cents.

Yeah I released all of the ones that we caught. It makes sense that bigger ones would get stocked later in the winter, as water temps get colder..thanks!
