• Daily bag limit is five per child
• 3,000 Rainbow Trout are released in the Commons pond

Tips for successful fishing:

• Use a lightweight line (4-6 lbs. test), small hooks and small sinkers.  
• Bait can include live worms, power bait, whole kernel corn, cheese, salmon eggs, marshmallows or small artificial lures.  
• The first twenty-five kids to catch a trout will win a rod and reel combo set.
• This event is rain or shine. Check the forecast and be prepared for the weather.

Adult anglers may start fishing at 11:00 a.m. that day. Those 17 years old and up are required to have a Texas fishing license, which is available at most sporting goods stores.

Everyone is encouraged to keep fishing until they're no longer biting. Park hours are from dawn until dusk.
