(click image to enlarge)We found a great campsite, but the fishing was less than spectacular. We did manage to land a few wild rainbows, but they were very small.

Then they move to land and live for several years as an "eft". Then they will go back to the water and become aquatic again as a full adult and lay eggs.
nice report. I've never caught many fish in SC, always better places to go.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Yes, SC only has a fraction of the miles of streams of NC. Our best trout stream would have to be the Chattooga, without a doubt. We also have a few streams with native brookies. But, I typically fish in NC because of the better opportunities.
