I have a new thing to figure out. Up 'til a few years ago most of our small streams closed Oct 31 and didn't reopen 'til either the 4th Saturday in April or Saturday of Memorial weekend, but now some that are blocked below by falls or dams so they have only native, not migratory, populations, are staying open year around. I need to learn to fish flies in really cold water.
Brookies ... they're pretty! And pretty tasty.
