Just wondering how people are doing out on Courthouse? Thanks!

One trout on the power bait worm...several strikes on a spinner - panther martin black - kind of big one maybe 3/8 oz. that I coulnd't get a hook set.

...and we know about people muscling in on a spot... I couldn't cast the spinner anymore with five bobbers in my way.

Any special rules for out there I should know about?? ie.. single or treble hook rules? Thanks in advance!

[slipperybob]

Not sure actually, maybe just normal rules...normally I don't use live bait, but I've seen people use worms and waxies the like...I think on occassion I've seen people with live minnows. Either they don't care or don't know or something, but usually if you ask them, they'll reply IDK. There's a sign up, No boating or swimming, I think the rules are written down by that sign. I know this is bad, but it's been a while since I read that sign.

so anyway, there's this one snapper around. First time I seen him in the lake. Other people said, "It's the same old snapper...stealing trout on stringer." Then I caught a fairly large trout maybe about 15 inches, but the trout was swimming towards the snapper and I had to really pull hard. That's when I lost the trout and everybody was sort of like, better luck next time...

all u have to do is read the book. It tells u all the rules for fishing a stocked pond.No live bait means no live minnows,everything else such as waxies,nightcrawlers,angleworms,leaches, all are o.k.

i cant believe how many people fish without knowing the rules, it makes me sick. I also am so sick of hearing the idk.

IF YOU DONT KNOW, EITHER FIND OUT OR DONT FISH.

Hey, relax TroutSmoker. At least they are concerned about following the rules. That's a start.
