When we were in New Hampshire last week, 07/06 thru 07/13, we had a lot of fun dipping nymphs in the little pocket pools toward the headwaters of the Ammonoosuc River and Jefferson Brook near the base of the cog railroad that runs to the top of Mount Washington. No casting involved, just reach out and drop the nymph into the white water tumbling into the pocket pools, ranging in size 3'x6' to 5'x20'. We found that #10 cased caddis and Zug Bugs worked well. The little, 6" to 8", native and stocked, 10", brook trout weren't picky, just hungry. We probably caught 50+ over a mile of stream. The little 6" native trout had vivid colors and the water was crystal clear, a nice change from silver carp and brown water back in Nebraska.
