4 years ago, fish this size filled this stream. Poor management, which red necks love destroyed this fishery in a matter of a few years. 8 fish limit and no size regulations. I litterally watched stringer after stringer pulled out this section. That's how delicate trout fisheries are, and this was a great example of what can happen in a matter of months. Which is a shame as these are unique species that spawn in the fall, most rainbow trout spawn during other of season.
Dry Creek, which is sterile hence it's name, it is not very productive fishery, but amazing and a 2 hr hike from Alpine, Utah. By mid August it no longer exists, at-least the water. This year the water fall flows where the biggest I have seen in 10 years, the power was amazing.
