Clear Fork is Probably better....Hard to Judge.

and what was that small creek you were fishin in the begining?

[riverhunters]

It is called kings creek, it feeds into the Mad river up by Urbana. has some Brookies and, Browns up in it a few miles.

[SBskater6969]

oh nice is it worth fishing it now in the summer?

[riverhunters]

Yes it's worth fishing in the summer. The Mad River is always worth it. But it can piss you off at times. Kinda like any other river.

[FreshwaterAngling]

You gotta know what you are doing on the Mad River. There are some great fish if you get on them.

@bill7920 Yea I screwed up saying Apple creek. I read the survey for that stretch where TU stocks it and your right. Have you caught any carry overs? The best trout stream where I'm at is Brookville's tailwaters from the dam to the confluence at Whitewater river in Indiana. It's only a mile and a half but the cold water comming out of the dam keeps the water temps below 70 degrees in the summer. TU was going to put bolders in but the locals appealed I heard.

@christopherb27 Apple Creek has a natrual population? Of what chubs? TU began stocking Apple Creek 5 or 6 years ago there is a small number of hold overs but no natural reproduction AT ALL. There are two streams in Geauga County with wild brookies which are protected. The Chagrin and its tribs did at one time support a native population of brook trout but now they have been reintroduced. The Cuyahoga might have had wild brookies as well but that was long ago, after the last Iceage.

Is This By Loudlow Falls?

@pk066392 Reatard? I'm an Icthyologist who recieved my associates at Hocking college and my Bachlors from OSU.

1. Apple and The Chargrin are the only two that have natrural popluations.

2.Clear Creek isn't a true trout stream. They die off by summer and require stockings in the fall beacuse of poor water conditions.

3. Cold Creek looks like a family place and also needs suplemetal stockings.

4. The Mad has carry overs and we have reports and case studies of browns reproducing, rarley.

[twelveyearoldfisher1]

the stillwater has rainbows too, but their stocked, i caught 2 13-15 inch rainbows last year. good fishing. you guys get so mad at eachother for saying which rivers have trout.

[pk066392]

ok, so even if you dont count the lake erie tribs, lets start counting

1 clear fork

2 mad

3 clear creek

4 apple creek

5 cold creek

5 three separate tribs of the cayuhoga, all with wild reproducing brooks

All of the streams mentioned above have populations of trout year yound, the cuya tribs have wild reproducing brooks. You can find information like this concealed in books, but you might not know how to read, that might be why you are such a retard

[pk066392]

only 2 rivers in ohio with rainbows and browns, how about this.

mad river, clear fork, cold creek, clear creek, vermilion river, rocky river, chagrin river, cuyahoga river, grand river, They all have trout, retard
