fshng84 - which of those small ponds gets stocked in Bethany? or are they all interconnected? Taking a friend and his 3.5 year old son fishing on Monday afternoon and trying to decide if I should hit Flower Mound or Bethany. Also TWPD site says tomorrow 12/15 for Bethany not today - heads up  Thanks, Thanks, got too excited and forgot today is the 14th. Bummer. Fished Bethany today but using UL Spinning Gear. Limited out... Did breakout the fly rod briefly and had a couple of strikes but none landed. Did make it to Waterloo Friday and caught a number using Near Deere and the fly rod! Video.Here is the video of the action using UL Spinning Gear. Video. Did go back this morning and did a repeat but also able to pull out the Switch Rod and catch them with several different fishing flies. Will post a video later. Video posted as mentioned; mainly spinning gear but have a snippet and pics of the fishing flies that worked today! Video.

I swung by bethany this afternoon with my son and father - we struck out on trout - though we did catch a 12" bass. we tried lures, mouse-tails (various colors), & dough. Only saw three caught all afternoon until we had to leave around 3:45pm. One guy caught 2 on a fly under a bobber and another guy caught 1 on bread dough.

Merry Christmas! Windy and cold yesterday fishing Waterloo Park Pond in Denison. Tried fishing flies, corn, and salmon eggs... no takers. Then, went to Power Bait and the "slack line" technique where we don't hold the rod, so we can keep our hands in our pockets to stay warm, three of us limited out before it got colder and windier! Video Post.

I have had more luck throwing the line on the bottom and letting it sit like catfishing.
They will take it and run with it,lots of fun.

Fun time yesterday catching trout at Waterloo Park Pond for a catch and cook video. Also, got some underwater video of trout taking Powerbait and Corn. Good to see how the trout were taking out bait. Gives an idea what we were sensing each time trout would nip at our bait. Fishing Videos. Did get to use the Micro Fly Rod to catch and miss a couple trout else it was all bait... corn in particular
