Yesterday’s temps in the 2 streams I fished were good but water levels low, so stealthy approaches are necessary to get hits .
Also many fish I feel regardless of water temp etc just need to acclimate to the new surroundings and may be off feed for awhile . This I know to be true since months from now I always get bigger fish , thru winter months .

Good assessment. I've seen much of the same. By Thanksgiving time they will be more apt to be caught than now.
