Default Cardiff Park Pond

I was wondering how Cardiff Park Pond is this year? I don't see it on the stocked list [1], and only see it on the proposal list for 15th of June [2]. Is there anything to catch now?

Have never heard anything about brookies, I go there once or twice a week. They are jumping and biting but pretty sure the lake was winter killed. Might as well bring your ice fishing jigs because they are super small this year. Caught 2 bows a couple days ago and they were maybe 6 inches long at most nothing worth keeping.

So in other words, they did stock it.

My biggest trout out of cardiff was 14 inches 5 years ago, one of the first trout ponds i fished in Alberta until it started winter killing.

Default Lures

I've tried leeches, worms, cheese in this place and have not gotten one bite the two times I have been there. My son gets bored because he can't catch anything (he is 5 and his patience is underestimated), for two hours. I've been by the docks and on the narrow section NE part. I see them jumping. what's thier preference???
