Wild Brown Trout - A Trip to Beaver Creek




Saturday was the opener of turkey season, but alas I was not able to get out.  I had to bring my son to TKD leadership class at 9 and then drop him off at scouts for a campout at 11am.


Then, I was driving a half hour West to fish a small stream that holds wild browns for about an hour while my wife was at a lunch date with a previous coworker.  I'll take what I can get.  This small creek was fly fishing only and catch and release.

I set out on the stream and there was one other truck in the lot.  I kept wondering why the water was a little murky, but it was because he was ahead of me wading.  I ended up catching a small wild brown right away (adipose fin was not clipped so I know it wasn't a stocker), then wrangled a small rainbow from a deep hole.  I didn't have much time and had to leave to continue on to my father-in-laws 80 birthday dinner in PA. 



I was happy with myself that I had caught a few after the other fellow had already gone through above me.
