DFW Fishing | Bethany Lakes Trout Stocking

Texas Trout Stocking Season is in full swing. Our local pond received its stocking Thursday, 12/19. Yours truly made a quick trip after work to the pond and noted lots of folks catching trout.

Trout were active, and bait seemed to be the key. I opted for lures and managed to catch two trout - one on a Gold Super Duper and another on a PowerBait Worm (it's a lure isn't it?).

Fun times, even cooked up the two using a simple recipe of Garlic Powder, Season Salt, and Jalapenos!

Made it back this morning and caught three on Super Dupers. Will get that video posted at a later date.

Fun times!

Tried a Bubble Fly Rig but as it turned out, bait was what they wanted!

DFW Fishing | How I Fished the Super Duper at Bethany Lakes

Fishing updates and related activities from the Team! This round caught three trout... two on a Gold Super Duper and one on a Silver Super Duper on a Friday morning quick trip.

Did go back Saturday and caught three more on the Gold Super Duper. But, no video.

Back Sunday morning and finally limited out using a Black Roostertail. Video in the works stay tuned.

For this round, check out the retrieve that I was using when fishing the Super Dupers!

Texas Trout Stocking | Limited Out After Finding the Pattern

Back to the local pond for more trout fishing. Cold temps with frost had changed the pattern. Eventually found a lure and a retrieve that worked. Limited out casting to passing schools of trout. Do check out the video to see how I found pattern.

Nice video! Its funny how the patterns change daily. I usually fish with kids so prefer power bait since its easy to manage multiple poles with the girls.

Thanks! PowerBait is a great bait to have ready.

YouTube Shorts video of yours truly trout fishing using a Kastking Zephyr BFS reel and a Fire Tiger Roostertail, and then a Penn Pursuit spinning reel and a Black Roostertail. Steady but fast retrieve was key!

I've never liked roostertails, but I guess they work. I've been catching bass on a pink, bucktail, Mepps spinner and I can't wait to try it on some trout.

I keep them along with Mepps spinners, Super Dupers, and Kastmasters handy and change lures until I find the pattern.
