Its because they are territorial, its aggression. Same with brookies, they are fall spawners. I would like to see proof of big fish coming out of the elbow with consistency after rainstorms, without the fish being stacked up because of a spawn.
yeah i know there fall spawners but like i said try it for yourself. after being spooked everyday by the floaters they grab every chance to feed up when there not spooked like on foul days were people dont like to go outside. and the fact that they hold closer to shore when its darker out. all makes for a super aggresive brown in the elbow.
territorial? not too much in the elbow if you take your dingy and look around in the deeper pools. you can see them in there holding in groups up to 4. but usaly just 2-3.
the bow theyre pretty territorial.

^ browns spawn in the fall, i wouldnt think they wouldnt be gorging on worms.
fully aware of that bud.....browns will eat will eat almost anything that swims by there nose in the fall and im not saying its only browns feeding on the worms after a rainstorm. the little brookies do it too.
i know this because using a SJW in brown in fall by the drainages i hooked into a crazy amount of browns. and it didnt realy matter what we used they ate it.didnt just say fall in summer they love it too
go there after a rainstorm and tie on a SJW in brown and let me know how you do

iv caught alot out of the elbow river from pike , browns to brookies and suckers in between.
if your spin casting use the 2nd smallest rainbow trout pattern and jerk it along.
if your fly fishing iv done well with mirco leeches and a scud. or nymphing youll almost certanly cathc suckers and whitefish its full of it.
by the rapids beside the cycle path cast in those little pockets sometimes only about your hand wide but it should hold fish.
the deep sandy clear bottom where the wood wall is holds some 15+ brookies and some small browns there.
the best fishing is yes when its cloudy and for the elbow its even better when you have limited visablity.
iv put my 2 years every sunday fishing it and once though rafters come they seem to either disapear of sit at the bottom with no movement.
the majority of the fish will come right after a rainstorm. fish the drainages and use SJW. and you can realy sneak up on them because its stained water. dont let your SJW anywhere near the bottom a sucker will grab it. and the trout wont mind picking it up. or cast onto the drainage and let it splash down!
the browns are pretty scrony because theyre spooked almost 24/7. it only worth fishing in fall when the bigger browns move in and after a rainstorm when they gorge themselves on worms
