Alot of people don’t realize the benefit of fishing after a good rain. We got 3 inches last night and come morning the SEPA streams were looking mighty fine. This one in particular was up and dirty running at 70CFS. I grabbed my streamer rod and headed out. I used the same streamer all day,…

Thanksgiving Class A
Thanksgiving or not the weather was too nice to not get out on the water here in SEPA. It wasn’t a long outing, just 2 hours or so at my local Class A water. The water was running about 50CFS which isnt low nor the best. I love fishing this stream when it’s about 80CFS….
Cold Lehigh County Outing
The recent rain still looked all to good even 2 days later. My brother and I headed north to Lehigh County to fish a stocked water. As expected it was flowing about 160 CFS when we got there. About twice as high as normal with a good green tinge. We arrived at around 8:00 a.m…
Native Brookies
I decided to try something new today and headed into Berks county. Todays adventure was going to be different then any other normal fishing outing. This one would require a different level of dedication and commitment. Not only for the fishing, but just getting to the location to do the fishing. It started on the…
Bob and Pete vs the Tully
Today I took my brother and his friend to the biggest creek near by. We needed a place to fish that had a high chance of us landing a few. This stream was fairly close and was recently stocked by the state. I was late getting up so I met them 30 minutes after they…
Day in Cumberland County
I started off bright and early this morning leaving around 5am. It was towards Cumberland Co that I was headed today. A direction I normally dont or have even fished before, West. After a two hour and change ride time I finally arrived at the stream, it was looking low, or at-least what I perceived…
Itty Bitty Brownie Committee
Was able to get an hour of fishing in this cold November afternoon. Checked out a small tributary to a well known SEPA trout water near me. This has been my new hobby as of late and I plan to continue it strong into 2021. Starting to explore and do recon on every fishable water…
Berks stream hiking
Did a little trail hiking this morning in berks county. A familiar stream by most as it has a strong reputation. Didn’t do any fishing but this stream will be getting an official visit in the next week or two along with an official report.
Local preserve
Started exploring a local preserve and boy are they pretty. This one contains a Class A stream as well as a tributary that holds wild browns. The best thing about fishing these areas in the evening is not only for the fish but also the prevalent wildlife.
Blue mountains exploration
Decided to head north and check out the weiser state forest. There is a little stream that runs through the forest that has a brook trout population. Unfortunately forgetting it was Sunday + hunting season put a damper in the excursion. After a grueling 30 minute hike down the side of the mountain I was…
