All Water Guides5-Day Outlook as of 1/19/23
Trout are being stocked weekly in the Guadalupe River. Freshly stocked fish will be much easier to catch.
Techniques & Tips as of 1/19/23
Freshly stocked trout will readily take most streamers. As the fishing pressure increases be prepared for the fish to become much more selective. Light tippets and small flies will be more productive.
