Yah the cooler water will make them active. The warmer water they will usually only hit flies,minnows and wax worms in my area during certain times.
When I went fishing for creek chubs for pike bait during the summer we hit a brown or two in a hour and a half almost everytime. We caught them each time on wax worms. I never used powerbait in the streams since they never ever bite on the stuff here. Try wax worms if you can find them. I guess you can say they move in the water different then the meal worms do since they are soft skinned and the meal worms have that armor type skin.
Since you said they stocked them last week over there then they should be pretty active if they are not already caught by other fisherman.
But yah seriously though look to see how much they stocked if you can find out. Is it a popular fishing spot? I mean is it like elbow to elbow full of gungho fisherman with there mickeymouse poles?lol
Dont you hate it when you got fly fisherman takeing up a huge hole to themselves when its busy. This one guy tried to do it and positioned himself deep in the hole and what not so people would try to avoid him. i asked nicely if i can fish there. He was like "NO" find your own spot. I was like this is a huge hole. He was like I dont care. So i said f**k it I toss my line in and I told the guy in a loud ticked off voice (im a big scary looking guy when i have the ticked off look) lol "Im going to fish here if u like it or not, I will let you throw the first punch and once you hit me your A** is mine. So you better make sure you knock my A** out". I told him "is it really worth it over a fish in a popular fishing hole?" He took off and grumbled its all yours. It pretty much let 3 other people fish the hole so i think it made them happy.
