One of the things I love about fishing trout streams is that most of the time I can find a fishing hole and see the fish.

I’ve seen marshmallows, corn, minnows, worms, giant plugs with three treble hooks dangling from them, trout dough bait, carp dough bait, catfish stink bait, plastic lures in all shapes and sizes and of course, my favorite, fishing flies.
