Lake Miramar fishing 2/5 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Been fishing Miramar several times in the yak. Have done real well. They do have some large trout there. They have been stocking them large. Caught a limit of five that weighed over twenty five lbs. Haven't caught anything under 2 # largest around 6.

I dont see why Mirimar wouldnt have holdover trout.

Some of the best trout fishing I ever had was at San V in 50' of water on a 100+ deg day. Obviously these fish were able to escape to deeper water if needed but they were holding in 50-60' in August so the temp there must have been comfortable.

water movement is just as important. if they have plenty of oxygenated water moving they will hold in the deep spots year round.

How do the stockers taste? My wife claimed to have cooked one up before and she said it was horrible. She has been spoiled with Sierra trout in the past but wanted to get some feedback from the recent Miramar trout action....

I'm not a fan. The nebraska tailwalkers that are stocked at Miramar do have the nice looking pink flesh but they still taste like a stocker. Still fun to catch on the ultralight gear. My limits go straight to the freezer and then to the

nets.

though except early morning. Slow troll powerbait/crawler. Kayaks not allowed.
