North Eastern Fly Fishing

Hey all, I live about 5 minutes away from the Musky Gorge Preservation Area, and have fished it a good bit this spring. It’s an area I discovered only this year.

I's been difficult this year to find the time to get out and fish, but yesterday I made my first trip out to NEPA. Water was a bit higher than I thought it would be but still very fishable and water temps were normal around 54 degrees. Bug activity was sparse with only a few caddis coming off with some dink fish...

Last week it was 90 degrees outside. This week it's 32! I've been watching a lot of fly fishing videos on FB as well as Youtube and it really put me in the mood to fish.

Hey,
I justbmoved to Palmer, PA. I went to the little lehigh yesterday... apparently not the right spot, a park with lots of people. Caught a few fish...

Just when things were getting interesting again, see, eg, Pete’s post about one ply toilet paper and how a two finger bust through caused him to become an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community…

Grok says Beetle isn’t a deep philophical writer like Melville, and said that, for emphasis, I was more likely to use ALL CAPS than have anything actually witty or philophical to say.

Damn these AI’s are really gonna be the end of us.

Just thought I’d create a thread to help the losers who still hang out here and don’t catch any fish find sellers of old trophy fish from a half century ago that were rotting in the garage.

Did some fishing in NE PA yesterday, water temp was 62 in the afternoon, no bugs but black ants were popular with the fish. Had a nice afternoon, caught 4 between 8-18"s, all brown trout. Had to be very stealthy and quiet wading to get close.
