>>2707896I'm somewhat familiar with the Driftless area and also the Mississippi Valley Conservancy area. It's honestly heavenly for me, so much untouched natural beauty that just sits and waits to be experienced. This pic
>>2707898 is a perfect example of what I'm talking about, I've fished several trout streams that look just like it. Lots of little pockets of paradise to explore if you have the time to find them. Also, don't be afraid to ask landowners to fish on their property. Rural farmers are generous as long as you show some respect, in my experience.
