I'll post all my wild rainbow trout (Blue Ribbon Trout Area) pics here and other fish pics etc.
I recently fished a blue ribbon creek yesterday. Caught two 6" wild rainbows (and hooked a couple that got off the hook). I snapped one pic of a beautiful little trout. All were caught using soft hackle in fast ripples. Cheers. I'll add previous pics here soon.

I saw this on my way to the Red Ribbon area at Meramec. Pretty cool. Anyone seen these before? Fly library?

Bring it on! Would like to see some wild trout pics. 

I'm glad you're being discreet, but I am also curious about the 'flybrary'. I can keep a secret -- just ask @BilletHead . Sometimes for years! :D PM is fine.

Not to spill the beans or anything but it's on the way to the Red Ribbon area on the Meramec.😵

                Yea but you let it slip. Then I forgot where you said it was so your secret is still safe!

The Flybrary Project | Have One? Leave One. Need One? Take One.

   This is one I have read about. A bit different from the one you posted. I have heard of this one also.  Ther are some Ozarks flyfishers on here that I am sure know more about the one you mentioned.

Just to be a troll I might leave some small bait hooks with dough bait or red worm residue 😂.

@Jthawks keep posting. Can't wait to see some new water photos.

Yup, Meramec red ribbon cardiac hill access area. I think it's fine sharing the places I fish, I just don't want to pee anyone off. I was told on another forum that I shouldn't...and I said it's Missouri and I fish creeks mostly....I doubt people from across the world will come to the creeks to catch a few wild trout lol I mean the conservation dept is promoting people to fish it more with the trout slam! It brings money to the state....and every hole in a creek is a honey hole....and the Meramec is stocked....so why would I care if people know about that Mo gov. managed area lol....I just don't care about spot burning. Now if I was promoting my favorite spots to fish in these creeks/rivers I guess that takes away from it all. I'm conflicted and willing to hear people's opinions....that's why I'm now being discreet. But if I post a video on youtube of a creek I fish....I'm including the name of it. I plan on doing a video on all 9 blue ribbon areas some day and I'll definitely share the names. But for a forum...I guess I should be secretive. i don't know. I guess I'm suppose to personal message folks for the spot locations.

Perfect! That’s the upside to sharing secret places with senior citizens. 😊
