My favorite fishing holes are little creeks and high mountain lakes. None of which can handle any pressure so I can't say where. That is why they are secret, not because I don't like to share, also the fishing in them changes from year to year. Good on some trips, not so hot on others.
I like researching maps and finding little hard to reach areas that few others want to try and get to. Many don't pan out very well, actually most don't!
This last year I spent more time in the Southeastern Idaho-Western Wyoming area. I looked at a lot of creeks that have been completely dewatered, by irrigation needs. Their upper sections are small, brushy, short, and very hard to get to. Sometimes you have to hike over public land from the side or request permission to get into the upper areas. It has been a great adventure!
Here is a post of one of my favorite "successful finds".
