creek fishing
Catching brook trout
Creek fishing is angling in small freshwater streams rather than lakes, rivers, or the ocean.
It typically involves wading or fishing from the bank, often for trout, bass, or panfish in shallow, moving water.
The practice suggests a casual, accessible form of fishing close to home: We used to go creek fishing every summer as kids.
