Walked down to Glover's Creek yesterday. They have a gate up right as you enter Echo Valley park, but the walk in wasn't bad at all. Stream nearly completely open, with just a few places iced up. Temps around 30 degrees. Saw (scared) quite a few trouts. Went up to the first ford, and then onto the rocks; staying on the left side of the creek (and keeping my sox dry).
Hooked one rainbow (on a Green Retro), but lost him without getting him to me: Skunked.
Kept fishing that same hole, 'cause I couldn't go up further without using the ford. No Joy.
It started snowing, and after a while I gave it up, and walked out.
The steep hill by the stream was a little hard to go up, since the patches of ice now had snow on them. Had to walk slow, as I had neither my cleats or my wading staff; but it wasn't too bad as long as you went slow.
