For small stream/wild brookie fans, I have an article in the March/April issue of American Angler that you might be interested in. “Upstream, Downstream, Small Stream” is about different tactical approaches to high-gradient mountain streams, topwater and subsurface. The issue should be at newsstands and fly shops oh, right about now.

I’ll pick up a copy today.
Should provide some insight.
Thanks Alan. Let me know if it’s helpful. Although I’m sure you know all the tricks of the trade. And then some.
Looking forward to seeing it. I love little brookies and the waters they inhabit,
I love fishing small streams in Connecticut. Im grate full not alot of people fish them. I HATE when people over take just like the trout ponds the state stocks. When the fish are gone so are the people. I catch & release all my fish & thanks for the read.
