It's that time of year again, the Spring Creek Chapter of TU to hold their annual redd check on Spring Creek, you can sign up by going to their web site and asking to be included. We have a great time both before and after counting. For the past four years Ray Sheetz and I have counted the stream from Rock Road bridge downstream to the Benner Spring bridge and have found our numbers to be in the very good range except for one year we think most of the trout spawned earlier than our count. It is just wonderful to see the amount of natural spawning that occurs here, while we have not seen to many really big females lately they are there! Join us if you want of just show up and walk along with us, bring waders and very warm cloths!
Break out the BIG black streamers this week! Do not think Penn's does not have a ton of fish enjoying the spawn, they do it's just a bit harder to find them because of the bigger water, just look for good gravel bars!
