Catfish being stocked again at Chisholm Park pond

More catfish are coming to Chisholm Park pond, 2200 Norwood Drive in Hurst.

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department workers are scheduled to again stock the pond with channel cat on Friday and they are available to be caught as soon as they are in the water.

Another stocking is scheduled for June 3. Both dates are subject to change because of bad weather and fish availability.

What you need to know:

  • Kids under 17 years old can fish for free, but adults need a state fishing license. There is a two-pole limit per angler.
  • The best baits to use are nightcrawlers, chicken livers, shrimp, stinkbait or sliced hot dogs.
  • There is no minimum-length limit, but there is a five-fish-per-day bag limit.
