Blue Springs Creek video

[Jthawks]

This is my first post on here (i was accepted in the forum today...woohoo!). I finished editing a video of my trips to Blue Springs Creek, and thought I'd share it. The footage was captured during late summer and during fall this year. There weren't a lot of trout there that I could easily spot, probably spooked most of them into hiding. I was mostly wanting to get familiar with the spots that I might fish. I did see a couple good size 12'' wild trout, but the other handful I saw were small. I think this creek had some flooding that may have hurt the wild trout population?? Has any fished for trout where Blue Springs Creek and Meramec meet?
Anyway, hope you enjoy it...here's the link....

Welcome to the forum Josh. Blue Springs Creek is a neat little stream. You captured it well. 

[FishnDave]

Nicely done.  I visited it this summer for the first time as well.  I've heard the best way to fish it is to stay out of the stream to avoid spooking the fish.  But....its irresistable...you GOTTA wade in it! 😁

Yes, nice video.  I have many hours logged on that creek and recognize almost all of those spots.  A 12” fish is a lunker.  Still love it though.  
 

who is the artist/band?

I liked it so much I turned SoundHound loose on it. I guess it’s Pink Floyd, which surprised me.

That is a surprise.  Has a Syd Barrett quality to it.

Yes it is Pink Floyd's San Tropez from their Meddle Album.

Josh enjoyed the video and the Pink Floyd soundtrack. Welcome to the forum.

Thanks everyone! Meddle is my favorite Pink Floyd song. I really wanted to catch fish at Blue Creek Springs, but the water was low and I heard it's a little easier to catch trout there during the spring. There weren't many fish spotted which kind of shocked me. I'd like to go to the spring next year (got to get permission from the salvation army I guess.

I'm a big Pink Floyd fan and have so many well liked Pink Floyd songs, Like "If" from Atom Heart Mother and "Wish you were here" Also don't mind hearing Seamus the dog barking in the background either .

Favorite charades song title ever - Several Species of Small furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict
