They are all white springs is the Stave. Lots of them in there too Bwi.

Thank you for the info.  I live less than 10 min from it and doesn't really know what's in it.   :P

There are a few reds in there.
I got one a few weeks back,so they do exist,but rare I think.
Got a few over the years and they are mostly whites but not all.

They have been returning to the Stave for at least 10 years. When I first heard about them in 2000, my sources said n0-0ne was able to make them strike. I responded with "That is because no-one has come up with the right combination". I was scoffed at as usual and challenged to catch them. On my right bicep the dates of my first and second (35lb & 36lb) fly caught, Stave River springs are tattooed.  They are there, but you need to hunt for them.
