Fly Fishing New Streams for Wild Brook Trout- will I find a good one?

Fly fishing new streams for wild brook trout is a great way to spend the summer. Not every trip yields a new trout hotspot, sometimes there aren’t any wild fish in good numbers, or sometimes there are tons of small brookies but no bigger ones. Yet, if you are willing to do the work, bushwacking through the woods can yield some excellent spots to catch wild brook trout on flies. Usually I use a couple of sources of data on the computer to find prospective fishing spots, and then spend the summer months checking them out.

Fly fishing for wild brook trout has a couple of advantages in the summer, the streams typically stay cold enough to fish all summer long if they are primarily in the woods and have enough shade. This provides fishing when a lot of the bigger trout streams are getting too cold.
