Headed out for a wild brook trout stream yesterday and was happily suprised. I came to find out that there were not only brook trout but rainbows and browns as well. I was only able to land 2 brookies, and small brown, and a rainbow, but I could tell this stream has a lot of potential. There is so much structure, downed trees and logjams everywhere. 3/4 fish came on a dry, one of the broom trout took a chubby and the other 2 took a blue dun, while the best brook trout of the day came out of the deepest hole and took a rather large streamer. I thought there would be a much bigger fish in there, but maybe not. Much of the creek looks like it was washed out, as there are also a ton of roots exposed, but there were also deep undercuts in very hard to reach places. I was using my 6 1/2 foot 3 wt today instead of my 10 ft, so casting between the trees and roots was extremely difficult, and more often than not I snagged myself before landing a cast in the hole. Definitely a stream I have to comr back too.
