Do you fish for Brookies on small streams in the winter and what are your go to flies and equipment (rod)?

Yes. Brookies actually fish better and are more reliable than Browns in cold weather IMO. I just fish a small streamer, like size 14 small, dead drift like a big nymph. Normal Brookie rod is fine...7’6ish, 4wt-ish.

Interesting Swattie. I've never noticed a difference between the willingness of brook vs brown trout in the winter and both seem to readily bite.
