Brook trout nirvana in New Hampshire back country

    Hidden gem back country brook trout streams can take years of effort to find. New Hampshire has dozens of streams running down from the White Mountains -- some are fishable / some aren't... you never know till you hike up the trails, hack through the brush and wet a line.
     And then there's the other way... you sit next to a guy at the local pub and he spills the beans on some incredible trout water you wouldn't have found in a thousand years.

Such was the case for this stream my brother Marc & I fished in New Hampshire's north country. Pool after glorious pool, run after magnificent run holding feisty native brook trout, eager to pounce on a well-presented dry fly made our trek memorable and one that will be repeated again.

Enjoy the video and pictorial display.





Elk Hair Caddis or Parachute Adams #16 were choice flies.






Water temp was 62 degrees.











Does it get any better?




































Good luck in finding your gem of a stream.


Semper paratus.
