Preseason Trout Fishing

Type: Nontidal
Region: Central
Location: Middle Creek and Beaver Creek

I started the fishing season the other day going up to Middle Creek and Beaver Creek. Fishing was slow at Middle Creek with just one fallfish Caught. The scenery was pretty though Middle Creek was high but fishable. Drove over to Beaver Creek at Roxberry Road and finally after many hours caught a skinny rainbow trout on a black wooly bugger followed an hour later by a fatter trout that put up a good fight though it was only around 12-13 inches. Beaver Creek was also high but fishable. With rains arriving both streams might be high and muddy by now. Fishing is better than watching reruns on TV. The cold water makes for slow fishing and a lot of patience is needed. By late March the fishing should be better.
