Shad, is that not bait fish? :angel:
Trouts,
While you offer your arcanum fishing spots up freely, your decision on the surface might be improvident. I doubt this scalawag group, would share any information on "favorite" fishing locations.
All right, here is my favorite trout spot - Sure hate to give this up as it is a pretty close held secret:
Smith River: Park by Mirror Factory, walk tracks to trestle, walk down little stream to main river, fish back to bottom of Mirror Factory field. (Brown trout with an ocassional stocker)
