I catch and release everything I hook and I like it when others do.  On that note I'm not going to tell someone else what they should do with their fish if it is caught legally.  If the club doesn't like it maybe they should look at stocking catch & release waters only.  Or push to get that stretch changed to catch and release.  Until then maybe you should leave the high horse at home...

Status: offline 		ha, good replies.  maybe it wouldn't be a problem to keep a fish or two here or there IF you were a member.  if you want to take fish for food then perhaps fish a state stocked water.  and i didn't tell him what to do.  i reminded him what the club states on their website.   keep only those you are going to eat.  let's all have a look at the club's website before we all start thinking we know everything.  myself included.

Status: offline 		I'm going to take a chance and say that Peters Creek is not an approved trout stream and that local clubs do the stocking.

Fishing was good Friday the day before the opener.....something wrong with that picture by my sense of fair play. Catch and release but few seem to do it. Stocked for your pleasure of fishing not keeping.....except for the kids. If it was my club I'd try and put the fish in an approved stream to eliminate the greedy vultures.

It was hard work, the river was up, not real clear, they were laying about 5 to 10 feet from shore, and they were damn picky!

They also have many kids days down at the stream.  Its a good place for a father to take a child.

Status: offline 		Yup. I didn't do any good today though. The algea was dying back and making a floatilla of big gobs of booger like matter.

Made my flies all boogery, and I think the fish are somewhat dormant at this point. I also got a good clue as to the question lately of "what happened to the fish?". There were some HUGE talon like footprints in the snow, about the size of my hand. Looked like some type of large predatory bird.

Status: offline 		I guess it is the cold that is killing it. It was washed clear of chlorophyl and comming off in slimmy clumps.

I don't know if the tracks were turkey or some other type of large bird. I've seen some crane or some other type of very large water bird in the creek intermittently over the years, and there was only one single print in the area. The turkeys always seem to travel in dozens.
What ever it was it was about 4-5 inches wide and about the same length.

Status: offline 		Been thinking about peters pretty heavly here recently (cabin fever setting in i suppose) already starting to get some ideas as far as new tackle & gear for the upcoming season, did'nt get my start until mid-summer last year due to a knee surgery, looking forward to this year!!! As far as the tracks you've seen, i most definately think that it was that crane that patrols peters creek, i've seen it many times, IT IS HUGE!!! it actually scared me & my brother-in-law a few times last year when it would come swooping down stream low.
