finally got out onstream today and caught a few. my first trout of 2004. it wasn't fishing it was catching and it got kinda boring. then it dawned on me that the stream had recently been stocked and they would take a gum wrapper if i fished it. yep nothin like stalking the wily stocked trout. i think maybe chub are more selective feeders. oh well it was nice to be on the water and not freezing.
