Last night I went into stealth mode and got some brookies. No big ones but put a good quantity into the net.

There's something relaxing about targeting these dink creek fish. Not a single chub was caught, nice lol.

Tiny black or pink jighead flies worked

I'm not an Ithocoligist but I think they are all pictures of Brown Trout. Nice to target the stream-born fish non the less. I haven't fished the small streams lately, makes me think about planning a trip.

nah these are definitely brookies, no browns reported in this stream. but they can be hard to tell apart at this tiny size, their features arent as bold.

Ithocologist? Brown trout? Hmmm:confused:

White-stripers. You caught a lot of them. I tried for them back in October with my 2wt & did hook one, but the highlight was saving a big one from a water snake. I saw the fish spook, scoot under a ledge, and then the snake emerge from under there with the 10-inch brookie's tail in its mouth! I went in up above my waist, finally got a grab on the snake, and when it dropped the brookie, it went, open-mouthed, for my other arm. If I had dropped it a split-second later, it would have got me.

110% brook trout!!

I always enjoy heading to the Mt. Streams and catching these little gems! Only true native trout to our area!

Those are some amazing pics... Mother nature spent a lot of time perfecting those patterns of colors.
