Yellow Creek

Flashback to Fall in the Fly Fishing only section of Yellow Creek. This area contains a plentiful population of wild trout, and in fact just recently was added to the class A reproduction list. The stream also received stocked trout at the time I fished it.

It was a warm day among a could week, and we got there to fish after the rain stopped around noon. Sadly, the parking lot was nearly full when we got there. We got on the water and started fishing, but it seemed like a slow day. I began fishing sections of stream that I thought would hold fish, but wouldn't have been pressured by much by the other fishermen. I was rewarded with two nice brown trout.  



Earlier in the year, I had fished this same spot, and had almost no luck all day until near the end of the C&R section, where I was able to catch two nice sized rainbow trout that put up a good fight. This stream certainly produces and should get even better with time as the C&R and Class A regulations take hold.
