Hello, Hope to go back this Thursday as long as my wife has nothing for me to do. Keep my fingers crossed. I will fish below where I was on Sunday. All of the fish I caught on Sunday put up a great fight. So I guess by stocking them early in the season got them use to the stream instead of stocking each week. Good for the state for stocking early in the season. Bill the mailman

Kapfish, Bring caddis flies with you. This is a good stream for small pheasant tails probably size 16 or 18 also soft hackle flies. Bill the mailman
