I am going on a few days trip in Wshington County, and I am going to be fishing Beaver Creek for a while. It's Maryland's only natural limestone stream, and get's it's what from a spring of some sort, which causes the water to be 56 degrees constant.

 

I spin fish for trout, and I will be using some Rooster Tails, charteuse and pink trout magnets, and perhaps some yellow plastic mayfly imitations (Creme Trout Bug). Some one told me it was a lures only stream, I am am ditching the Powerbait (I only use it if fishing gets really slow, for some hatchery rainbows), which probably won't do anything to catch the wild brown trout in that stream, since they are the majority.

 

Anyone fishing this stream? Any tips on fishing it? Thanks.

 

It depends on what section you fish, most of it has no restrictions on baits you can throw

My friend fishes it. Those fish are SMART!!! Get some gold or white trout magnets, and some gulp minnows to fish on jigheads

Do do prefer to just dead drift your trout magnet under a bobber, or do the twitch, slow retrieve one that Leland's Lures does a video on? I have found that a dead drift somehow beats a twitch-retrieve (I only really catch rainbows when I'm out fishing), but do you twitch the TM for browns or dead drift?

The only time I dead drift trout magnets is when the water is freezing cold (December thru February) and I'm fishing for wild trout. Otherwise I'm twitching them.  I twitch it as much as I can without bringing it out of the strike zone, this varies with current.
