Well Tumbling Creek is at least a little different. It's more like the private "ranches" out West like the Dow Jones Ranch or the Orvis lodges. Most of what you're paying there is for lodging and a guide. It's a wild creek rather than an enclosed pond, so it's a more "authentic" fishing experience. I'd like it better if they didn't supplementally feed the trout, but I guess if someone's going to travel to their lodge, they're going to want shots at big trout. In a creek, that means feeding them to grow the fish faster and encourage them to stay put once they grow bigger (bigtrout tend to travel a whole lot if they don't have a steady food supply).
I've actually fished the public part of Tumbling Creek, though only for about an hour near the access bridge - I didn't have long that day. It's a nice little creek and I'd like to go back though. I'd love to see TWRA expand their stocking on a few creeks like Tumbling and create delayed harvest fisheries and stuff like that.
