Brutal 5+ hour shift on Lake Terrell Monday. Fished from the big pier and saw one bite the entire time...ended up being a perch. Ran through my whole arsenal of power eggs/dough and even a few lures. Ended up playing with a few perch and bluegill right under the dock just to keep myself entertained. Few other guys were out for hours before me and left while I was there...same results. No bites, no fish, no nothing! Guess I'll wait till (if) it gets stocked.

Were you fishing for trout?
If so, they stocked some jumbo trout (800 if I remember right) already this year. According to the stocking plan, that is all they will be stocking in there in 2017.

When did they do that? Cuz it's not showing up in their stocking report and none of the regulars out there seemed to think so.

That lake only ever gets 600-700 jumbos per year (except the random 1000 stocker size they put in last year).

Looks like it was 800, but triploids. And the stocking date is May (I thought it was March) so they may not even be stocked yet haha. Also 15,000 cutthroat fry in October.

Heres the 2017 Trout/Kokanee Stocking plan

I havent seen a stock date for jumbos but i could careless i was kittys and theres supposed to be some decent sized channels in terrell but no one really targets them. Anyone have a clue? Ill use a jbo for cut bait and before anyone jumps the gun using cut trout is not illegal.

I've seen people target cats out there once in a while with worms or moldy hot dogs. I saw a picture one of my fishing buddies out there took of a huge one that came out last year. All in all I've only seen a few caught and my understanding is they taste pretty much like mud....but they're definitely in there. Fazon lake supposedly has a bunch of giants!
