cool fishing
 

Went to the local pond today and BREC has stocked rainbow trout up to 3 lbs .Caught my limit between 1 and 2 lbs. gutted and headed and in the freezer.

Nice

Wasn't sure when they were gonna stock.

The one on Burbank right?
You flyfish or what?

How many fish make a limit?

Nah, he came and borrowed some snagging hooks from me the other day for an "experiment" as he called it. He also had a 12' ugly stick straight for walmart. Now, I know what he was up to! Lol!!!

I saw a sign at the one on N Sherwood that it was stocked with trout but I couldn't catch any. I did not know how to fish for them.

limit is 4 per person, hey eman did you take any pictures I have yet to see a rainbow trout from brec. I've heard of some nice bass being caught from the pond at burbank.

Post some pics! I knew they stocked the one on north Sherwood. Did not know about the one on Burbank.

They stocked the pond at sherwood forrest park w/ 1500 trout. the one at forrest park w/ 500 the one at perkins rd (olympia) w/500.
And flanacher rd park in zachary w/ 500. not at burbank this year.
Caught 8 today . me and son .
i am using berkly trout nibbles and berkley salmon eggs . carolina rigged . 6 lb line w/ a 6" leader. had my 1st 4 in 25 min today took the sonabout an hour to catch his 4.

I do cast a bead head wooly booger on my 3 wt. but w/ 20 mph winds i been leaving the buggy whip at home.
Not at burbank this year. The water at forrest park is real murky ,heard the same about perkins, The pond at flanacher has alot of trees and brush . Sherwood forrest is the best and easiest for fly fishing . Water is VERY clear so small tippet is mandatory.
Guys fishing w/ the right size line but trying to use corks didn't get a bite ,(fish could see the cork) . Can use a cork at forrest park and perkins rd.

I have pics and i will post them up on BREC facebook page in a day or two.
There are tagged trout this year and it works like any other tag . call and report and post on BREC facebook . March 15 2011 they will be drawing from all reported tags for prizes.

we went and got 8 yesterday and 8 today . fileted them up and fried trout tonight for supper.

They any good to eat? I caught and cooked some once and one bite it was in the trash can.

Made a seasoned cornflake and flour crust . marinaded the filets in la hot sauce and mustard for an hour . 4 out of 4 folks here said this was the best fish they had ever eaten. fry up a few quiet dogs to go w/ it and all i can say is DAYYYAAMMMMM
