Wheres our resident trout experts? Im going with my dad (not an expert, but knows more about it than I do) up to Rural Retreat, Va to this place Cedar Springs Trout Farm on tuesday. Ive never been trout fishing, but have caught plenty of bass and crappy and cats.
find out how they charge you for the fish. some of them fish farms charge by the pound and every fish is 2-3 pounds and you catch 10+ a $4.00 a pound it adds up quick.

It is a private stocked creek. We are not fly fishing. I just about fell out of my chair at the thought of me and him trying to fly fish. Thats a hospital trip waiting to happen.
I’ve been to that place. It’s pretty nice. $60/day. 6 fish limit. Limited number of people each day. I think they release 6 fish per person in the morning up at the top of the stream. We used nightcrawlers and powerbait. My father in law goes up there fairly often with customers for his job.
Don’t even bother trying to catch the golden trout. They don’t even pay attention to anything you throw at them.
If you would have any interest in "real" trout fishing, try some of the further parts of Wilson creek. Native trout as big as some of the stocked rainbow most people catch...
