The Good, The Bad And The Ugly- not very duck related

Native brookies are a moot point in our state. ( though it is the one trout species i like dont tell Neal). We are just to warm for them here any more to realy flourish). I second the pictures.

Im hoping to get on the river one last time for some large mouth before i have to start being a profesional vampire in a week
 
Chris, I've fished some of the small headwater streams in CT--and even in NJ!--that have wild brookies. When my dad first got out of the army, I was 5, and I remember him catching wild trout in a small brook in Vernon. (Tankerheusen sound right?) I also fished a couple of Housatonic tribs that had wild brookies maybe 5 years ago.

One of my favorite trout streams ever is small stream in western NJ that's better left unnamed but has wild trout from its source to its mouth--brookies up high, then rainbows and brookies, and finally rainbows and browns near it's mouth. It's a gem--crawling with bears, deer, turkeys, rattlesnakes and copperheads, in addition to the trout.

There is some surprisingly good trout water even in the more developed states.
 
wild and native are two completly different things. as i learned on a morning when no one was at work except me and Neal, that man can talk

we fry stock many of those rivers/streams where the trout grow up are then considered "wild"

i have shocked that river and that is a horrible place to go fishing, no trout there:).....
