Going to sling big bugs on Capps Sunday.  Had some good fish move last year and hope to find them hungry again this year

I hope you find them. I'm not going to make it this year, but I hope to do it next year.

Landed three. It was slowwwww. Biggest one came on a bugger jig in olive it was 17 in rainbow.  If they have stocked it hs been wiped out.  Caught one small parr marked rainbow and one brown missed quite a few rainbows didn't see any big browns at all.

Camera was in truck for big rainbow but I kept it to eat. My wife has never had trout

I caught a parr marker a couple of weeks ago. At least you caught a few.

Was too cold for me, even though I had the tackle ready to go. I used to fish in minus temps, with ice on the guides,  but these days don't find it much fun when the air drops below ~40F.

When I talked to the hatchery driver there last spring, he told me they always stocked the browns in November, so I'm surprised that they haven't stocked the stream recently. Should have been an October stocking of rainbows from what I was told, but given how few fish were being stocked at RRSP over the summer,  the stocking might have been a small one.

Me too.   Plus I have more leeway to pick my battles.  I got out a couple times last year when the temp was in the 30’s but it was calm and sunny.

Well, for me, life just got in the way this time around. I came down with Covid last week earlier on so it took me out of the game all of last week. Must have been an alright day, you didn't end up skunked! Which is pretty easy to do down there. I guess you won this year by default whether you caught anything or not!  lol

The parr are interesting, has anyone seen redds there? can the trout get up/over the mill dam to the  springs?

Let us know what she thinks of trout please and thank you.
