I live in Ga. and back in the early 80's they stocked brooks every creek or lake where they normally stock trout around here. And it was opening weekend, the creek that was closest to my home was where I was fishing and in the brushes hunging from the side of creek were snakes i would there were close to 40 to 50 small snakes all with a big fat belly the size of those brook trout lol. I have caught brook trout a few times here. Thank you for sharing and God bless you and your whole family...🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀
