Big Springs

My kid went to ****inson. This was the "back way" out of town. He was there 4 years and I didn't fish the Letort or Big Spring in those four years. Neither did he. Shame on him. 😉

Hey dudeman

I’m with you I have fished there at least 3 times and from 4-5 different spots back in 2020 and never seen any fish including the ditch and out from the parking lot, i believe there used be a little dam or stone pile i used to stand on.

Believe it or not, Big Spring is very deceptive.
I once sat on the driveway bridge at the second parking lot while Sasquatch was fishing it. I keep pointing out fish. There had to be about 20 rainbows there. He couldn't see them, then suddenly he did. And then we was taken back by how many fish there actually were.

You would think in that gin clear, slow moving, shallow water that spotting fish would be easy. It isnt until you get an eye for it. The rainbows camouflage themselves very well and can almost look translucent.

Granted that was prior to 2020. I have not been back there in close the 10 years. It is possible it took that much of a dive, but I doubt it.

I have a question do most folks fish in the stream or casting along the stream.

My guess is along the stream

Did anybody have luck one way versus another

Sometimes looking for a shadow on the bottom helps locating fish.

I agree 100%, fishing the ditch from the grass you often see nothing, but once you go up on the dam you can see dozens.
