Yesterday (Saturday) I fished a brookie stream in NC PA. Even though the big creeks were still very high, looked dangerous to wade, and very few people were fishing them, the brookie streams were at a perfect flow level.
You can just skip the mornings. Fish in the afternoon. Then the sun has warmed things up some, there is typically more bug activity, so the trout are more likely to be looking up. The water temp was only 50F yesterday, but they were hitting dries well.
A Stimulator or other shaggy dry fly is just the thing when the small streams are rattling and roaring.
If you have a chance this weekend, try a small forested freestone stream. They are in perfect condition.
