Just about all the trout have been stocked in the SE streams for the opener Saturday. Some were stocked weeks ago. Given the high flows and even flooding throughout the region, I don't believe you will have to worry about whether the stream was float stocked to distribute the fish. :lol:
Also the higher water temps will probably put the fish in a more mobile mode. Bad news for the bridge hole guys sitting in their lawn chairs, although many fish will remain in those areas, but good news for those who like to walk away for the stocking points and explore the water.
I will venture a guess that the FBC will get a lot of complaints about the lack of fish, but as I said, it's a good year to explore the stocked streams and find your own little honey hole, especially in areas downstream of where they were stocked.
Good luck to all.
