when will they stock this pond?

Anyone been fishing here yet? Says stocked on April 30th

How is the perch fishing here? Has it picked up?

Well over 24" of ice. Not much snow on top. Bite was on today.

Hows the action? Anyone catching?

2 rainbows within the first 1 hour or so after sunrise, nothing afterwards, fished until noon. I put the camera in the hole seen lots of perch swimming around at the bottom but not bitting. I'm sure it's just of matter of finding what they want. I was using a small teardrop with assorted trout bait colours....pretty windy out today but just nice to get out for the morning!

Lots of ice, but beware of the SE side where the pumps are on in both sections.

How’s the action on the hard water?

I always take trash out. And bust those who don't. Cash money.

i agree its always a mess out there , lots of people last weekend and tons of mess.

I have just returned from daily trip around the trout pond in Vegreville, and I must say I am totally disgusted with the trash and discarded fishing line that I have cleaned up and picked up today! I not sure what type of anglers fish this area but I can assure you all they are not real fishing people, I rescued a common gull that was caught up with fishing line on it's leg complete with a 4/6 ounce lead weight and a 1/2 lb trout rotting in the water, there is also a gossling (goose) with a hook in it's beak and a length of line attached to it's leg,I was unable to catch this bird,it may die . Please be carefull with old discarded line and hooks,and please keep our Trout pond clean. I am an angler and have been fishing for over 60 years.

Anyone know how the perch fishing is here ?!!

where is the Vegreville Trout Pond located?

They have been there since some idiot illegally stocked it a number of years ago.

Sorry, do i have this right. There's perch now in the Vegreville Trout Pond? Since when? Fished there a decade ago and no perch were there.

Soo anybody fishing yet? If so what's biting ?!

still has some ice on this pond! Maybe a few weeks before it melts

Is the ice off yet and if so how's the perch fishing ?

Just search "Alberta trout stocking" every fish stocked since 2008 I reckon.

When will they stock this pond guys?

Has anyone fished here recently? Just wondering if a person can still make it out safely for one last ice fishing trip.

Ice is full auger deep right to the power head Lots of fish but picky last weekend

Carson Lake by Whitecourt has 56,000 rainbow stocked on Sept 26, 2016.

sedubius what is your source that stocking has been halted?

Stocking has been put on hold while the farms are inspected for whirling disease.

Thanks LRD

Stocking report not updated since June. Last year they did brood stock on Sept 21 -- ~300 of them.

Is it already been stocked this september?

Ice Hole Pounder, on which side of pond are you catching the perch? I've been there 4 times simce ice melt and haven't got a single perch. I thought maybe they were fished out by the poachers I saw from last year.

How do you get to the pond? Off of range road 150 or highway16?

90% of the perch have a weird skin growth on them still fun to catch I probably wouldn't eat them average size 4-8" can catch the odd trout as well mostly catch and release though, and also clean up your god dam garbage when you are done otherwise the town will have this place fenced off with no access to it !!!

39 Yellow Perch in 3 hours. Not a bad day at all.

Hi Pikster, thank you and congrats also! Have a nice summer fishing

Hey Barrykoy, I got a 4 pounder a year ago and was just as surprised. others claimed the same prior to mine and I thought they were pulling my leg. nice to hear others catching them. Congrats!!

Pickerel rig with worms!

Pickerel rig with what on it? Worms? Powerbait?

Im using pickerel rig when i caught him, try using bobber for about 5ft above your hook
