The water level has dropped nicely since the nearly 2.5 inches of rain on the watershed last week. There was a good flow with some stain to the water, enough that you could not spot the trout in the holes or runs. I caught a 15-incher on a purple prince and another smaller rainbow on a worm pattern.

I spoke with three fly fishers from Columbus fishing Apple Creek for the first time. One of them, Paul, had just caught his second rainbow trout as I passed by. See picture on this webpage.
