kinda want to prank you and tell you to bring waders and an 8wt, but there's nothing in the water there besides eels. 

As far as the trout, the $2,500 they used to spend on kids fishing day was cut from the county budget as wasteful/trivial spending...  Funny how this was around the same time the county started building million dollar bus stops and multimillion dollar dog parks.

It might be worth taking a look if you're right there, but generally I understand from Rob that as you get above Mt. Vernon Ave. the water gets pretty skinny.  There might not be "fishing sized" fish up there.  

Oddly, I recall about 6 years (or 7) ago when they used to stock the upper 4MR with trout.  We biked through there one day and saw a lot of people with their kids out there fishing for trout.  I assume this program was abandoned either due to poaching or feasibility.
