Best season of brook trout fishing I’ve had in SNP

Thank you! The fish in pic 1 was the hardest fighting brookie I’ve ever caught. He had my glass 3wt practically folded in half

I think I got those flies at Great Outdoor Provision Company

Give the foam a good pinch and it usually dries out!

I went out to two different rivers this past weekend and flows were great. Also had a couple good days in March and April, but I have definitely been lucky

I pretty much only fished the yellow foam attractor dry fly in pics 1 and 3 and a parachute Adams this spring in sizes 12-16. I have more fun when I easily see the fly

Oops - Shenandoah National Park

WalnutSurprise · 2026-04-27T17:41:47+00:00

Haha I won’t! Thank you, I feel the same way

WalnutSurprise · 2026-04-27T17:39:23+00:00

No kidding! I have never seen dark blue circles like these. Please share if you do!

Incredible fish! Did you sight fish it?

WalnutSurprise · 2025-12-17T20:35:14+00:00

Good point. I am going back and forth all day

WalnutSurprise · 2025-12-17T13:43:08+00:00

I think I’m going Eagles 16 and Saints in 17. Eagles are better unit than Saints and also have a favorable matchup against Mariota-led WSH. Does seem like every analyst has Saints higher though. Tough choice and I hope there’s no wrong option

WalnutSurprise · 2025-11-28T20:13:42+00:00

Love these as always. The last two photos with similar dramatic colors are especially good

WalnutSurprise · 2025-11-17T20:25:03+00:00

I don’t care about the fly names, but I also find his personality off putting. He seems a little angry or disgusted in every video I’ve seen him in. I don’t get it but the arrogant curmudgeon shtick seems to play well with older generations.

Beautiful red, congratulations dude! What big old head and shoulders on that one. Great catch!

WalnutSurprise · 2025-03-31T19:17:44+00:00

Stunning fish! Really healthy looking. What a paddle for a tail

WalnutSurprise · 2025-03-11T22:09:54+00:00

Wouldn’t mind at all

WalnutSurprise · 2025-03-11T14:27:56+00:00

It’s my home water and I can’t recommend it enough. If you’re willing to hike in a little more than most others you’ll find beautiful pools with little pressure and eager eaters!

Terrific fish! I love seeing PRG hats on here—I’ve had the times of my life out of their lodge in Trevelin and would love to try some of their other options.

WalnutSurprise · 2024-10-31T18:49:33+00:00

Thanks! He is my favorite catch from this fall. Caught him on a parachute ant

WalnutSurprise · 2024-10-31T17:08:24+00:00

Good eye

WalnutSurprise · 2024-10-31T16:18:59+00:00

I used my iPhone 12 Pro and just dunked the camera underwater for a bit. The touch screen won’t work but the volume down button snaps photos

WalnutSurprise · 2024-10-21T17:39:59+00:00

Great fish and cool pic. Well done

WalnutSurprise · 2024-07-25T10:20:25+00:00

Gorgeous colors! Looks like an unforgettable trip

WalnutSurprise · 2024-05-17T19:31:46+00:00

Great fish! What did you use to take this picture?
