Trout fishing around polk/paulding?

[Carry_on]

I used to to pull trout out of racoon creek and the pumpkinvine creek years ago when I didn't feel like making the drive further up north.Was looking to get back into it this summer.

I was wonder if any of you guys are still having luck around this area? Maybe someone can fill me in on a local honey hole Haha.

Yea i actually tried it yesterday afternoon.i used to go there as a kid with my pops and pull them out along with the pumpkinvine. I worried that with the "virus" going on they aren't stocking this month like they scheduled.

Most of pumpkinvine is nasty and raccoon has a waiting line. Price we pay for fishing so close to ATL.

Raccoon Creek doesn’t have good access either, unless you like to ride a bike or don’t mind long walks. If the beavers have the dams blocking the creek, the trout won’t disperse like usual, making them easy prey for folks. Last time I was there, the trout were limited to a 150 yard stretch of the creek due to the dams.

DNR site says they stock pumpkinpile in Polk county but I can never find a fish on any of the drainages listed...I truly don’t believe they ever do stock it
