This really is fun and I get a good feeling putting things back the way they were. My neighbors son caught a state record trout in the creek out front years ago. It is very damaged now from cattle up creek. The state will even help pay to fence and put in cisterns now but in the future I expect it will be law and one I think we should have. The cattle and all livestock do a lot of damage. It doesn't take long either and hard work and expensive to fix. I had good and bad yesterday as one of my younger Trout showed up but one of my big guys died. I wad afraid of that and am going to catch my other two out before too late. The one that died measured a little over 24"s and weighed 11 lbs. He had already been chewed up though so not certain what his live weight would be. Color faded out too as these big ones are gorgeous. Gotta catch and grow some more.
