LATE & EARLY SEASON FISHING AT DEPUY'S SPRING CREEK (part 5)
Quiet Time: After spawning, fall-run brown trout head back to Yellowstone River (REMINDER: that doesn't mean all brown trout are gone from the creek!!). Aquatic weed beds die down in the early part of December. After that the creek marks the lowest water level till weeds grow back in next summer. Water comes out around 56F from Armstrong's spring within the O'Hair Ranch. Toward the lower end of DePuy's, it could be as low as 44F on cold days but it never freezes up.
