Great report !!
4 fish, 3 SMB and one Trout in about 2 1/2 hours. Also threw P.M's and a sinking Rapala black and gold. The water where I was fishing was real low.
Maybe Jigman already went threw the area I was fishing?

Maybe I just suck

I had no SMB--all trout. I was immediately down stream of the tunnels; that was my parking/starting point and I worked down from there. We were the first car there and slowly people started congregating in that area so we fled to "greener pastures". I was surprised by the total number of brown trout and their overall acrobatics for stocked fish...and the fact that I saw no one else with fish.

To quote Rev. Maclean from A River Runs through It: "The Lord has blessed us all today... It's just that he has been particularly good to me."

I'm no holy roller but it seems fitting...

I drove through the tunnel area on my way to Gronski's for breakfast and the area was packed with fishermen.

When we started around 630ish, we were the only ones there. They started coming through in drips and drabs so we just moved it along downstream. Fished the fast moving water where it splits briefly and then continued down under the bridge there. Went a touch further but that was about it. There was a good number of cars parked over there when we shoved off but I don't know if it was fisherman or little league parents.

There was no one at the 2nd spot we hit.
