Fishing in chocolate milk

[SkinnyLynnie]

Right now, a lot of our mountain streams look like they're running chocolate milk instead of the normal crystal clear water. Nevertheless, I'm pretty sure that the fish are still in there somewhere. (They don't crawl out on the bank and wait for the water to clear up, do they?) My question is this. Where do the fish go when the water turns muddy and milky, and is it still possible to catch them? It may be a few weeks before the water flows go down, and I'd like to go stream fishing before then. What kinds of flies or baits should I use, and where should I fish--in still pools, along the bottom of the stream, in the stronger current? I would love to hear from anyone who has experienced success fishing under "chocolate milk" conditions.
