Cattle everywhere.....
banks trampled down...
electric fence across the water.

First cast after the photo I caught a 21 inch brown from under the root wad caught on the fence.

and a really nice brookie just 20 yards up further.

Sometimes the old adage of "Trout Don't Live In Ugly Places" is wrong.

The only reason I fished this at all is that there was a huge spring emptying in 100 yards upstream.
