Scoring at least one rainbow, brown and brook trout in the same outing may not be much to some. Landing a triple within the limits of Fairfax County is up there with a no hitter in my book. Well, maybe if the VDGIF hadn't stocked our stream this week it would be like bowling 300; but I will savor this small accomplishment even if the odds are seriously stacked in favor of the angler this week.
As it turns out, the new trout have the same weakness for the wooly bugger as their winter stock brethren. Surprisingly, even the normally stingy brown trout are strung out on streamers lately. I wish them a slow recovery until the bass hit their spring beds.
Final tally: 4 browns, 2 rainbows, and a brookie...in an hour and a half
