They will readily take most fly's and put up a good fight for their size. My experience catching brookies was in the Sierras of California and because of the high altitude the growing season was short for these fish. Most lakes had a shitload of em and they were all about 6"-10" but for a kid it was a fishing dream. Good times. Where did you catch this one at Scrounger? What fly did it take?

They are our native trout here in New Brunswick Canada. We wait every year for the ones who have gone out to sea to return. They are awesome, they taste better than they look.

Those 2 pictures are the same fish. I caught one bigger a few years back but I think the picture is on my older pc. I'll try and find it. A fellow across the river from me in a canoe caught 2 that weekend 24 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

I know spots in the drift less area where you can catch 50 10-12 inches in a couple of hours. Parachute Adams is one of my all time favorite flies, but for spring creek brookies I tie wooly buggers with black bodies and blue tails, with beadheads. Brookies attack those things.
