Trout Creek (Monument Creek) edit

solid information on good sources, not too exciting, nor is the hook. What do you think of saying something about the wild trout in the Trout creek? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:24, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: You mean something like ... that there are trout in Trout Creek? In terms of reader interest, it could either be a good hook (as in, hmm...there must be something I'm missing) or a terrible one (as in, well, obviously). ALT0 is probably somewhere in between, in my opinion. There's a lot of stuff in it, and some of it might sound enticingly curious to the layperson. --Jakob (talk) aka Jakec 23:39, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
I rather thought of the article line
ALT1: ... that wild trout naturally reproduce in Trout Creek from its headwaters to its mouth?
but I can't approve my own hook even if it's yours. So I
approve the original and predict not too many clicks, but you taught something to the few attracted ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:16, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
