I am seeing a lot of brookie posts lately, everyone please be checking your water temps when fishing native waters. Summertime causes a lot of stress on fish already, and low dissolved oxygen levels can cause fish to slowly suffocate after swimming away even after “looking healthy” once released. Usually between 65-68 F water temp is considered too warm to safely fish for native brookies. If you don’t know (use a thermometer) the water temperature is below at least 68 at the heat of the day, please don’t fish for them!
