DESCRIPTION

Beaver Creek is a hidden gem about 5 miles west of town. A small stream best suited for small fly rods. It is a wonderful little stream with plenty of browns, rainbows, and brook trout. Due to the terrain you have to work for each fish. This stream has not seen much pressure in the last twenty years. Bug life in this stream is confined to caddis. Elk Hair caddis and Beetles are all the dry flies you need. Pheasant tails and gold ribbed hare's ear nymphs are the sub surface patterns that will produce.
