Accotink

My second morning on Accotink Creek since the fall trout stocking was worth four rainbows. After fishing this creek after several seasonal stockings I note that the rainbows tend to hold in very specific spots. Since this is my home water, I will not elaborate, but the rainbows usually gravitate to cut banks and holes that satisfy the basic trout needs: cover, current, and food supply. Also, the word is out that the trout are in the creek. The pressure is definitely picking up, and not everyone is playing by the rules. Holes with good numbers of rainbows no longer give up easy bites. The party’s over -- back to bass fishing.
