Afternoon's Catch.
Morning's Catch.

I'll be trying River Park this Tuesday. Three years ago the angler next to me caught a 3lb. on and old black martin panther with an old zebco 33. He schooled all of us "Young Bucks" as he caught this fish on his fourth cast. The trouts' tail was sticking out of the minnow bucket he brought as a live well.

they stocked river park ft. worth today. usually they put in giant trout over there but this year all i saw was 12 to 14 inchers at most. didnt stock til 3pm because the truck broke down. from 3 to 4 didnt get a bite then last 1 1/2 before dark caught and released 12 to 15 trout all on panther martins. they seem to work out there real good. still alot of fish in there. most didnt catch much. they had stocked 2,500. gl

I went to Bethany today from 4 to 4:30 and I caught my limit in that time. All were caught on a gold Super Duper. Cast out and count to 5 before the retrieve. I met Fshng84 as I was leaving he was coming in.

Fished Bethany for an hour today b/n 9:00 - 10:00

Slow bite, but managed a limit. All fish caught on gold super dooper

Started off I had to count bait down to 10 and sloowwwwwwwly retrieve. Caught a couple that way and they seemed to shut off. By the the end of my 1hr trip the fish had moved up(sun came out) and you could pick up your retrieve a little bit. Didn't have to countdown then. I wasted a lot of time fishing deep before I realized they moved up. Then, blammo.... finished my limit fast.

Caught 2 'green trout' to boot. One nice 2 pounder gave me a good tug.



Saw very little action among the other brave anglers..... It was 30 degrees when I got out of the truck.

Most fish were empty stomach. One was chock full of corn.
Guy near me picked up a few fish off the bottom on power bait. Then he produced a couple off a 1/16th(best guess) white jig. Looked like he was swimming the bait and not knocking the bottom with it.

Good luck everyone.
Gotta find a spot with bigger stockers.

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:

sircharles4848 and dallasloanguy. I believe that i met the both of you today haha. I was the guy in jeans and a camo sweatshirt. Nice meeting yall. Caught my limit about 5 minutes right after sircharles4848 left and just kept catching and releasing. Left them biting today around 11:20. 2 caught on pink powerbait and the rest on a gold 503 super dooper and 1/16 white rooster tail. I will be out there again around 8 or 9.

Hey ultralight09

I should be there again in the morning.....

Hi Bomber1,
Had hits on the Gold Super Duper yesterday evening but too slow in setting the hook with three lost as I was bringing them in. Switched to Orange Powerbait and caught one before I had to leave but a limit would have been the case.

All,
Just re-stocked on Super Dupers, Mepps Spinners, and Panther Martin Inline Spinners. Going to see which one gets the most hits. Unfortunately, did not get any 503 Silver Super Dupers.

Yea, I was in full camo gear with a Black Texas Longhorn (GO HORNS!!!) hat on. I belive I met DallasLoanGuy in the parking lot just as I got there. Anyway, from the looks of it, I will also be out there again tomorrow. Hope to see yall there!

Field Test of Trout Lures did not pan out this evening at Bethany Lakes. A lot of surface activity but no hits on Gold Super Duper, Mepps Spinner, or the Panther Martin Inline Spinner. Switched to Orange Powerbait and limited out in about 15". Today's Catch

Made it out to Bethany Park in Allen again today. I was there for @ 2hrs. Caught another limit on 503 Silver Superduper. The bite was a little slower, although on the first two cast of the day I hung 2 fish but both got off before I could land them.

Here is a pic of todays catch.

Great catch. Super Duper seems to be pretty hot at Bethany this season! I am going to give Trinity Park in Fort Worth a shot this weekend. Supposed to be some 20 inchers ,they had last year. Then I might stop by Bethany on Sunday

trinity park was stocked by tpwd. 10 inchers if ya lucky

Super Dupers and Powerbait are staying in the lead at Bethany Lakes. Limited out on Powerbait this evening.

Should be an interesting weekend with a number of places getting their Trout Stocking tomorrow!

FYI: Did stop by this morning for a brief stop on the way to work. No strikes, so this evening's limit made up for it. Did find an article that we liked about "ways to cook a Trout"; posted a link on our Weblog .
