How soon after stocking do the trout start biting?

Just wondering. Should we give them a couple of days to get settled? Do they even bite the same day they are stocked?

Went to the park in Tomball (Burroughs) for the first time. When I got there about 10:30am only two people had 5 fish between them and everyone else had a skunk working. My first cast I got bit in about 2 minutes and had my limit within 30.

It's all in the rigging. 4# test, Carolina rig with a small hook and floating Berkley Power Bait.
