How should I fish this small creek in upstate ny? It is stocked and parts of it are pretty pressured however I finally found a couple spots where I was able to see a few big trout swimming around. I had one go after a trout magnet and then before it bit just turned back around and swam away. Thinking maybe the bobber spooked it. So I tried a wooly bugger but the trout went after the split shots no the bugger so then I figured it liked the flash of the sinkers and tried a few different rooster tails and ended up only catching a little guy. Caught a few smaller ones on trout magnet but I the water is only like 2 feet deep with a lot of big rocks that make it a foot or less in random spots so I think the neon bobber is spooking the big ones. But I did have one( not sure how big, sun was glaring off the water) go after my bobber which was a first.
