Not impressed at all. Caught 4 but took forever and some were around 8". They only stocked 4 buckets in the whole stretch of stream.

It was the best opening day I've had in a long time. I took my 7 yr old daughter with me and met a bunch of others with their kids. They all were hammering the fish in a nice slow moving hole. She and I had a great time. Most fish were over 10 inches and we through back the smaller ones. I snuck out Sunday morning by myself and caught 7 in 2 hours. My daughter was pissed I left her behind, She's hooked.

We had a good first day as usual, caught atleast 50 among the 4 of us. I was lucky enough to catch 3 paliminos'. The stockies seemed to be larger this year, lots of 10-13" trout.

went to a stocked steam and caught 6 from 6-9 inches and decided that i could catch natives that big and went to my honey hole and landed 4 nice natives before i had to go to baseball. it is sad when the natives your catching are the same size if not bigger then the stocked trout.

i had a slower day then usual , only landed 15 , but they were all 8-14 inches , peanuts in my book , for the more money we pay for licenses , we should have bigger trout , also some places i would like to see them make catch and release tho , so we can have fish all year to catch!

I didnt go but my two sons went and they had a great day both caught their limit smallest one being 11 and the largest 15.

i've been having good luck the last couple of days however they are still all small except for 1 or 2 nice 17-18 inchers. and i have been catching a lot more fish out of a pond using my new setup. what i do is put a #14 treble hook 1ft-1'6'' under a float with power bait and then a minnow down around 5 ft on a #12 treble. they don't seem to hit hard in the ponds for me
