Trying for trout at Holmes run the past few days, no luck so far, any specific holes along the creek one can recommend, looking to head out again tomorrow (Thursday) and would like to cut time.

Just drove past. Water is high but not stained.

Dylan, 
That delayed harvest run was only stocked (yesterday) Wednesday. Nice size browns (I think).  The stocked fish seemed more stressed than usual.

They're there. I fished yesterday with a wooly bugger, but only had one hit over a fairly long time fishing. I came back today and caught one in about an hour on a nymph - (thanks to the guy who gave it to me)! There are fish holding throughout the section directly downstream from the dam. I saw trout near the first and second bridges, and caught mine right at the first creek crossing. I haven't gone farther downstream since the stocking, though there are a few spots further downstream that looked really fishy to me when I walked by them a week or so ago. Good luck!

It's been years since I fished here, but in the winter that I hit the stream, I found it took a week after stocking for the fish to hit consistently.  green bugger was all I needed.
