I absolutely love fall colors. Especially in the colors on brook trout as they begin to spawn. If there is a prettier trout I don't know what it is.



Nothing like an ultra light rod/reel and a lit up brookie to cheer up one's attitude.


I don't know what it is about a Panther Martin that trout like or hate, but either way I'm sure glad they hit it.


The fishing required a little bit of a walk and once on the creek it wasn't the easiest fishing in the world. It was quite brushy and the creek it's self is super rocky. Every darn one of those rocks was covered in moss and slicker than snot. I spent more time trying to stay vertical that I did fishing. Thankfully I never took any really hard falls. While it was a little tricky to fish it was worth it.


I made my way back up out of the canyon and back to my pick up shortly before dark. It was a great afternoon, and this sunset was a perfect gift to end the day with.

d4570, I'd just about bet I caught these fish within 30 minutes or less of some of your favorite coyote stands. There was so much coyote sign in the area it distracted my thoughts a little while I was trying to fish. Can't you just picture yourself sitting here in a month or two and trying to call in a predator? On a stand like this anything from a coyote, to a fox, to bobcat could show up...not to mention a mountain lion or bear.

I was thinking the same thing.
Arrow creek? Shonken ?
You do know I call all across the state, but I get the Idea.
