I love trout fishing. There is a creak in Potter County, Pa. called Kettle creek. It is teaming with native Brook trout. Their meat is pink because all they eat is crayfish. It's salmon pink and delicious!!! They fight like monsters too. They don't get as big as the rainbows or browns but, they are fun to catch. Even some Palamino's in that creek, which get huge! I really want to take a trip to the great lakes and fish for steel head trout.
There is a creek about 10 mins from my house that gets stocked every year. I spend a lot of time there in the Spring and Summer. A few years back some idiots release two pet alligators into the creek further upstream but they were caught and removed before anyone got hurt or lost a dog. Lot's of people bring there dogs to this creek for swimming.
My last Black Lab Lily (my avatar) used to go out into the middle of the creek, face the current and then just stand or sit there and relax as the water rushed past her. She would let out this loud and long sigh whenever she did it. I always felt bad going fishing there because she'd see me getting ready to go fishing and would get upset that she couldn't come. She lived in the water. I'd have never caught a thing with her there. I REALLY miss that dog. Black Labs are awesome!
