Went out to Bethany Park in Allen this morning. Temperature was cold and the wind was blowing. Took a little while to find the trout. Me and a friend of my both limited out in @ 3hrs using 501 and 502 SuperDupers, silver and gold. Most fish were caught on gold.

Here is a link for the superdupers. (shows all sizes)

And some Pics to go with the report.

Nice, good to know Superdupers are working still!

I was out from around two thirty to four. Lost my super duper but tried a spoon and red salmon eggs. Three days and not a bite

gut em and grill em

you can cut the heads off too.

i like to build a little steamer out of aluminum foil.... like a pup tent.

throw in a few pats of butter.... sprinkle with lemon pepper.

mmmmmmmm good.

maybe a little cayenne for those who dare.

hard to grill. they stick. unless you have one of those fish flippers.

i usually just do in oven.

they fry up nice too. but i think you waste the flavor

long casts are key.

watch the water. in the morning they might be sipping bugs off the surface. cast beyond and drag thru.

Gold Superdupers and Orange Powerbait were working this evening at Bethany. Limits taken by several. Not so for this fisherman. Slow in setting the hook this round.

Went back to Bethany Park in Allen today. Caught another limit of trout. This time it only took @ 45 mins. The key today was a steady retrieve and a 503 silver superduper, although one was caught on a 503 gold superduper.

Here are the five from today:

A lot of surface activity at Bethany but no hits on lures this evening. Switched to Orange Powerbait and limited out in about 15". Observed other limits taken on Orange Powerbait. Today's Catch

I actually got a nibble today after a guy gave me a little power bait. Too bad it was after dark and the trout stopped biting. Maybe saturday ill be able to actually catch a limit

Made it well after dark when a fishing buddy and I arrived. Action was steady on Powerbait, taking a 5 Trout limit each in an hour. Best bet is to stick with Powerbait for now. Today's Catch

Shoot i think i saw yall as i was leaving

marked131,
they were still there this evening. Fishing buddy and I limited out in less than an hour using Chartreuse Powerbait. Today's Catch

Checked out Waterloo Park in Denison and two of us limited out on Trout using Chartreuse Powerbait. Others were also limiting out using Orange as well as Pink Powerbait. Did get a few nibbles on Bread, else it was all Powerbait.
Today's Catch

Waterloo Park in Denison continues to produce with limits being taken by a number of fishermen. Chartreuse and Orange Powerbaits worked well today. Trout were hitting almost immediately after casting. Today's Catch

I finally caught a trout at bethany. Used a superduper

Great to hear Super Dupers are still working marked131.

Stopped by Bethany in the AM to catch them on fishing flies. Had one hooked but lost it bring it in. Was using a Black Gnat. Came back in the evening, a few strikes but none caught. Today's Catch

I met a guy using a wooley bugger with a bead head and then we had a strike indicater above that and he just let it sit for a minute he caught a limit that way

Decided to try Lake Lewisville Ecological Learning Area (LLELA). LLELA's Trout stocking are usually larger size Trout compared to the 9"-10" Stockers released in the local community lakes. Struck out but others connected with some Bruiser Trout and an 18 pound Catfish caught this morning. Today's Pictures.

Fished Bethany Lakes this evening for Trout. Caught three using Orange Powerbait and Bread. Missed another eight; too slow/fast in setting the hook or lost while landing them. Today's Pictures

Buddy and I caught two limits of Trout at Bethany Lakes this morning to closeout the year. Cleaned and cooked them soon after! Bad News... Water Turkey showed up and have begun feeding. Cross our fingers the Trout make it through the week! Today's Pictures

Fishing buddy returned this morning to Bethany and mentioned it was a tough morning with no Trout caught. Cold and slow on the bite.

Opted to run up to the Blue River and checkout the area. Never been before and felt like a day trip to ring the New Year in.... Heard from others that the Trout fishing can be good to outstanding. Liked the area, will be back. Short Video Clip

Hit Bethany Lakes this morning for a quick trip to practice flycasting. Caught a little Bass!
Today's Pictures

What do yall use for bass fishing at bethany during the winter?

Used a Bead Head Olive Wooley Bugger in size 10. Fished slow and 6' under a strike indicator.

i caught a couple on super duper last month

i actually targeted them last yr and didnt have any luck. i dont think there are a lot of them.
heard a story of a 7# caught on bait a couple of yrs ago.... so they are in there. just hard to get em
