No trail along white house run, I know because I walked up the stream.
Several streams like this have no trail.

Nobody wants to fish stream "so-so" when they could be fishing a now super famous stream.

lf these streams are not 'listed' what are the regs for taking brookies ?
I ask, cos it has occurred to me more than once that i find a thin blue line with lots of small brookies i wonder that if i thinned them a little whether that would 'grow' a bigger fish or two ?
the couple of streams i used to fish i used to go late fall with a rake and clear dead leaves from the gravel, remove deadfall, prop up a bank or two - even got Mrs GB out there too, to help the streams as much as we could.

Don't get caught during the fall doing 'stream improvements,' none can be done without a permit and cannot be done after October 1. What makes you think that raking gravel is a good thing anyway? You may be raking a redd. Generally trout don't spawn before rains wash away the leaves where trout might spawn, I think you're wasting time and effort.geebee wrote:

Fishing "behind someone" can be detrimental if they are sloppy with wading and casting and less than an hour has passed. I have never been convinced that any harm lasts much longer. I know a lot of people with more experience have anecdotal proof to the contrary, but I remain skeptical based upon my own paltry experience.

I know foxgap and jackm are right, that brookie fishing one or more hours behind someone may not be as bad as it seems, but I still would rather not do it.
