went fishing at Hickory creek yesterday (12/13/2018) for first time this month
It looks like the Browns are off their redds, and are hungry as horses
Don't forget though; even though adults are off the redds, eggs (and then babies) will be in them through January.
So, if you don't remember where the Redds were made back in October, don't walk in the water, 'cause it will gett hard to see where the redds are now that the adults aren't keeping them clean. Fish from shore!

had good luck with my soft hackled pheasant tails (orange thread and wire, brass bead), and with small adams dries.
I saw quite a few fish (some large) rising to what i figured were midges, but i got 3 on the adams
Still quite a few rainbows in the water, they seemed fat (from eating eggs?) whereas the browns were all skinny
