This was just the beginning of troubles.. I found the creek very high, and fish were tough to locate.. Finally I moved down to my favorite hole.. Usually good for 5 or 6 brookies of above average size for the creek.. To my dismay, I found the hole occupied by a couple redheaded fish ducks.. I had never seen these buggers on this creek.. Not only that, but the grass showed someone else had discovered my favorite spot on the creek.. I left more than a little p. o'd.. I hit two more creeks and my luck did change.. But the fishing was the worst I have had in more than 40 years.. But I did manage to take a limit of brookies with my old 7.5 ' Fenglass fly rod.. I have been fishing with this rod for more than 40 years.. Still does a fine job..
