South Branch 4/26

[GregW93]

Haven't posted in a while, but figured I would post today. Fished both Capoolong Creek and the South Branch today. Arrived and Capoolong and caught 7 rainbows out of my favorite hole in 30 minutes. All released.Fish all on worms or shrimp salmon eggs. Went to Southbranch and was told only one net was dumped off bridge. Had a real rude guy walk right threw the hole and started throwing a spinner so no one else could fish. Fished and caught one rainbow in fast water then went down stream. Met a real nice CO and he told me they float stocked and stocked 25 breeders besides net off bridge. My first cast down stream I landed a 21" brookie . To nice to keep so she went back. Continued to fish hole and landed 9 more brookies and 4 small rainbows, but very colorful. Kept 4 brookies for gentleman who netted by big fish(he wanted to fill his smoker). All others went back. Water was slightly merky and high in SB but nice at Capoolong. Fishing should be great until Summer!!

On a side note, I saw a guy lose 2 breeder fish around 6-8lbs in 2 casts. All fish were holding in fast deeper runs of stream.
