They used to stock Ponds at some of the BREC parks in Baton Rouge in the late fall. People were catching them on whole kernal corn. ????

I caught a few in Colorado on regular rod and reel with some small spinners. I was out there elk hunting. And it was all I had. I fished for about an hour and finally caught a couple. I could see them everywhere just couldn't get them to bite. I was talking to the land owners son I was looking at the lake. I said "what yall go in the pond? Bass, brim, sacalait?" he looked at me like I was stupid. He said "no man it's rainbow trout." before he could finish I was already running down there. I had never caught one before.

My name is Nick Vincent. Orig from Abbeville.

Hooked onto one, after what seamed like forever trying to get them to bite. That sucker broke off. :cry::cry: **** 4lb test line, I would just about kill for some 17lb power pro. Gonna give them a try in the AM if the rain will hold off. Bowfishing would be great onthese waters.

went to Flippin, Arkansas (yes its a real town, look it up) about a year ago and caught a few on whole kernel corn, we then made the switch to some powerbait power balls, and we tore them up. best fishing ive done in a while. we fished with 6 and 8 pound test on regular old spinnin reels. we were told us coonasses wudn't going to catch anything, but we caught like 50 fish the whole day (limit is 5 between 10 of us) we wound up with like 150 fish in 3 days.

Picked up some lures at the local Wal-Mart and headed to a few creeks to fish. Managed to catch some sunfish, and a coupple of sacilat, but no trout. a fella just upstream from me cought a 17" rainbow trout. I just couldn't get one to swollow my hook. Got tired of being wet and headed back to the hotel. I am headded back home on Saturday, so I will try to get in a little more fishing during the week.

powerbaits work wonders....we were the only people that day on the white river tied up to a branch on the bank and casted where a river met the white river and caught about 50 fish in 3 hours. we stayed at gastons...real nice accomodations, beautiful scenery, good food, friendly.
