Will be in Spearfish/Deadwood this weekend for a wedding and was wondering if anyone wanted to PM some general info. I want to try my hand at catching some trout with a spinning rod.

Even better, please let me know all your honey holes.😎

Spearfish Creek in Spearfish canyon. Pick a spot and start. Rapid Creek below Pactola lake. Contact Dakota Angler in Rapid City. They will have advice on location and what to use.

Lots of pull offs along the road in Spearfish canyon right along the creek, just pick one and start fishing. I’ve also fished Rapid & Spring creek61B1A4B1-7EAA-4576-AD74-AC519FA730A0.jpeg

Little bastards made us work for them, seem pretty pressured they were finicky!
I had the same experience with several of the well-trod pull offs on Spearfish myself. It's not only that there are people stopping to fish, there were many folks just out of their cars and streamside taking in the canyon and getting photos and selfies and the like. The dam pools were stacked with trout that seemingly had their lips sewn shut.
