Folks in northern California are very familiar with the trophy size trout that the
Alpers family provides to local lakes and rivers. But now anglers
Laguna Niguel Lake are enjoying these exclusive trout too!
Laguna Niguel Lake has recently begun importing
Alpers trout from the Eastern Sierra region for their new stocking program. From Mid-November through April, these trophy size rainbow trout are being stocked in
Laguna Niguel Lake.
Alpers trout average 2-5 pounds when they are planted into a lake. So these trout can get pretty big by the time anglers catch one!
Little 5 year old David Alexander caught his first fish ever - and it was a 3 lb. whopper! David was using
PowerBait and fishing from shore. Likewise 11 year old Matthew Williams also caught a 3
pounder using a green power worm from a boat! There are plenty more stories like these!
By the way, if you've ever wanted to try your hand at fly fishing, here's your chance to get some expert instruction at a very low price! Every Saturday,
Laguna Niguel Lake offers beginning fly fishing
classes from 7 - 9 a.m. Admission is $30 and the class is limited to 10 anglers. This opportunity is too good to pass up if you've ever considered learning fly fishing. Even experienced fly fishers can learn a thing or two about fly fishing on
stillwater lakes!
Lugana Niguel is getting high marks from local angers for their quality fishing experience (and they have a
great web site too!).
