Default Comparing Trout Densities

Unless the number of trout per mile is a constant and controlled
number then would that be meaningless as well? It's pretty easy to get
avg cfs data for at least one section of a stream (say for a year).
But that still doesn't prove the ratio means much. The trout per mile
ARE highly variable and as stated, so is the cfs for a stream as we
all know ( and as george9219 pointed out)...Spring vs. late summer vs/
winter...

I guess I am still thinking these number of fish per mile numbers we
see are kinda silly if someone is trying to use them as a basis for
choosing one stream over another to fish.

I guess I'll let that be my final 2 cents worth
