troutguy 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2012 Thanks. My friend caught almost all Brookies that day and a really nice 16 inch Rainbow and I caught all Rainbows. Neither of us got a Brown. Fo a lot of rain the water was relatively clear and not very high. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluegill576 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2012 Never fished wilson creek, but fished many other rivers in NC. The Ararat is nice. They cleaned it up last fall and stocked it with trout and it was pretty good fishing through the winter, but the word in the bait fisherman community has gotten out about the river and there is almost always a poacher or two there. My favorite river in NC is the north toe river. It is mostly wild fish and there are some beautiful Appalachian brook trout there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
