Which Creek?

[Stretch23]

I want to try fishing a creek, fly, lure, or bait, on Saturday but I don’t know which one. I live in Idaho Falls and I don’t have any problem driving a couple of hours to fish as long as the fishing is decent. I would really like to catch a bunch of fish. Does anyone have suggestions on where to go? Please send me a message and tell where and what to try using.

Thanks,

Justin

Birch creek is an hour and a halfish drive and is easy pickings. It's a creek I always enjoyed fishing when in highschool. It's on the way to Leadore and is not far past mud lake.

I second birch creek. It's a planted creek so wait until they stock it if you can. Birch creek is a fun little creek.

Has to be copied and pasted to work correctly. Who in their right mind puts a space in a URL?

Has info on all the other family fishing waters too.

If we are talking creeks we should mention B*tch Creek. Kind of extreme but a lot of fun, and who doesn't enjoy telling people you went fishing there?

All trout. Mostly planters. You might get lucky and catch a little brookie or two. Leech patterns, small rubber legs, prince nymphs, just about anything you would normally use. They're planters, and are not picky. You could use small hopper patters, caddis, stimulators, royal wolfs, or something similar for top water. Again, they aren't picky, just put a fly in front of them and you're set.

Everyone has given you great advice. With the exception o birch creek because it is stocked it will be tough to get detailed information on creeks.

I personally love creek fishing but don't give up much information because small creeks can be fished out quickly. The creeks in the Kilgore area should be getting good about now.
