Thread: Trout time

I've been after them since they first stocked. Carondelet has been tough unless you get there on the first day of stocking since nobody knows how to count to four and keep 10-20 that first day. I do better at Suson and Walker even though Walker is catch and release. Haven't kept any yet. Did catch a lunker trout from Walker a couple weeks ago, a 22" hen which was fun. Thinking of going to Busch this weekend.

Yeah we know who is keeping 10 or 20 on first days, shorter guys who keep putting them in bags and taking them to their cars with impunity. Have called MDC and asked them to come check for licenses and fish but so far no one I've seen there. At Busch they do check and have arrested a couple of them for being aggressive in keeping but also harrassing guys who were ketchn and trying to get them to leave their spots.

When I am there I will loudly comment when I see them doing this about MDC is going to be using undercover guys and when they are caught if they are having them in their vehicles they can be impounded. You should see the rush to leave when I do that.

Was at Busch yesterday and no one was ketchn anything but one guy had a 8 incher. They were all using jakes and spinning baits or dough. My friend Tom will step up and start ketchn when he's there using small dark crappie hair jigs. So you should do well there.
