    Fishing was decent until about 9:00. Then the sun came out and not a cloudy in sight. Bluebird skies. Brown trout were not really biting, just the smaller aggressive ones. We switched it up and hit the lower end of a brook trout stream in search for a trophy. Well, Matt did find a chunky 16″ brookie that briefly took interest in his spinner however no hookup. We caught some nice keepers though in the 10-12″ range.

    Hey thanks guys. From what I can tell the majority of streams in Dunn County are brook trout only. My favorite is catching big browns however eater brookies in the 10-12″ range are fun too. Interesting if you worm you will either catch a chub or a brookie but no browns!

    Here is the tip I found that took me to my spot. Read the info on Dunn County.

    My camera is a Panisonic Lumix DMC-TS1. It is shockproof and waterproof. I’m pretty happy with the shots.

    My best underwater shot to date is on the Rush River April 1. Incredible river bottom.

    Here are a few more underwater shots:

    Hard to not stir up the water and you have to take a lot of shots because you cannot look at the preview screen so just take a bunch of photos. Most don’t turn out. Once in a while you get a good one.
