hey matt, forget about the trout stockings. put some time on the lake and look for trout chases (amazing!) fish these areas thouroughly with a surface bait suspending bait and bottom bait. vary your retrieve each cast (if you get hit burn your bait and then kill it, wow i'm foamin'!) experiment with color on a daily basis. long points and deep humps near stalking areas also key. don't forget the net, tape measure, scale, and digital camera! shoot me a msg. on this site & maybe we can hook up out at the lake sometime. ltr, armando
