I went wet wading (swim trunks, sport sandals, t-shirt) for an hour on the South Hoosic in Adams this evening.
Partly sunny, 70 degrees, near ideal stream conditions.
I started across from Mullen Mayflower, where I caught a 12" rainbow,
My spot under the Burnett Bednarz Bridge was occupied by a teenager and his girlfriend fishing (and possibly canoodling), so I proceeded to the footbridge below it, where I landed a 15" rainbow a little above the footbridge and a 10" brown a little below it.
Then I headed downstream past the Old Stone Mill to where Dry Brook empties into the river, where I reeled in a 7" dace (which is a bit of an oddity for that stretch of the river) and on to the small roll dam a little upstream from Elm Rock, where I caught a 17" rainbow just above the roll dam.
At Elm Rock itself, I beached a 14" rainbow, and then walked a bit further down to the small waterfall, beneath which I caught one last 17" rainbow for the evening.,
