Big Mill creek,Elk Co sunday 6-29-25,

Water was 59 degrees at 5:30 am and 61 at 10:00 when I wrapped up,caught stocked rainbows, stocked Brookies,possibly a small wild Brookie a wild Brown making my first trifecta of 2025 ,everything was caught in the DHALO AREA most on the ant dropper or green weenie and a few on the moth dry fly ,18 total a local said every time they stocked the creek it blew out for the weekend crowds dispursing fish through out the stream,anyhow all close up action plenty of bow and arrow casts as creek side vegetation was thick,

How far above Bingham Rd/ 135 did you fish? ANF roads are loaded with potholes but 143 is maybe the worst I've found.

Started at top end of the Dhalo area rocky run and fished up for 45 minutes, caught 5 up there, drove down to the bridge and parked in that back parking lot and fished down to a couple hundred yds of the lake,I wanted to get there but by 10 it was hot out so I left

Glad you caught some fish.General regs has a ton of fish left too but that road really sucks the farther you get back. Some potholes back by " The Duck Pond" maybe a foot deep. Crick has its share of problems with PH but good to see it holding fish.
