Kids fishing clinic Irvine regional park - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Saw this at the park today. Irvine regional park will be stalking the lake with trout for the little ones Saturday November the 14th. Scheduled event time is 7-11am. The event will be free, but entry to the park will be 5$. I was there with the little one and managed a bunch of tiny bluegill on flylined mealworms.

The majority of stocker trout that I've caught has been on green garlic power bait, or any of the powerbait mice tails dipped in garlice scent. Both rigged with small hooks and a split shot casted right off the shore. (This is from my limited Orange County trout fishing experience, but gives you a good place to start)

igotprawn...Thanks for posting about this great kid's event...
They could use some volunteers to help the kids with the rigging and bait and landing the fish...
To Volunteer PLEASE CALL... Emilio Rebollar @ (714) 408-0891
Emilio says that the lake is being stocked and should be plugged with trout and the fishing for the kids should be WFO.

I plan to go there.

There is also a fish-off by the members of another site, but I have to forgo that one.

Post to follow.
