Would this weekend be a good time to come up? Have hatches started and any fish on top availabe? Have 3 days and trying to figure out whereto go. Thanks in advance.

I have been fishing a Pa spring creek the last 3 weeks and the olives have been coming off like clockwork in the afternoon. today I started thinking where are spinners. do they come down at night in the 20 degree night weather? Any ideas?

Do they make these hooks or do you have to bend regular hooks? If they make them where can I get some? Thanks in advance

Bought the book today and after looking it over all I can say is WOW . He does a geat job at showing you how to tie the patterns you would need for winter fishing and PA spring creeks. I'm probably a lower end intermediate tier and even I can tie these flies with the pictures and instructions...

Any suggestions on hackles to tie dry flies with. Whiting, hoffman? Who in your opinion makes hackles stiff enough for good dry dlies and what #?

I always enjoy seeing threads about what people do for a living. The diversity is always interesting. I'm 56 and work as a psychotherapist, not a psycho therapist as some suggest. I also play basketball during the winter for my mental health

I'm thinking about it. How do the heavy W. branch flows affect the fishing?

I asked in another thread but maybe no one saw it. Can someone direct me to a trout poulation study re: the W. barnch and upper Mainstem that documents the decrease or increase in the fish pop over lets say the last 20 years. I'm sure one exists but don't remember seeing one. Thanks in advance.

Pretty interesting discussion. I go through this stuff like water. think I am going to order a gallon. What's there to lose? $6.95 http://www.paflyfish.com/cgi-bin/ceilidh.cgi$ceilidh?C31890e68300A-5639-420-30.htm

Yesterday off the wing dam in Lambertville I caught a 23 inch what looked like to me to be a male Splake. A splake is a cross between a brook tout and lake trout. I have seen to many big brook trout to not know one when I see one. My guess is this fish was gentically engineerd because it had a...

fished the same spring creek for the last 3 weeks. The last 2 days have been the most interesting. There were bugs and fish coming to them consistenly through all weather type days. for a 3 week perod. The last 2 days the bugs have been coming off thicker and actually were great hatches but no...

Just starting to tie up CDC emergers and wondering what type(brand name) you guys are using? I'm using Spirit rRver and don't think the feathers are all that great. Also how many feathers do you tie in at a time?( I use 3-4) I also use the tufts but have to use too many. Jim if you read this you...

I have been hitting these bugs on a spring creek in Pa for the last 3 weeks with fish coming up to them every day including today. Last year the same thing. What I don't understand is when people talk about February hatches they mention black stoneflies but I never hear anyone talking about...

I have some friends coming down from Maine on Presdidents's Day a NE holiday for a couple of days. My guess is Beaverkill and Willo won't have any hatches then but am wondering about W. Branch, Mainstem and E. Branch. Given I get lucky and get decent water level are there "normally" hatches that...

Talked to someone for a second on a private section of a creek and was wondering if it was anyone from here?

from a moderator's point of view, you guy's are great. Can't remember the last post had to delete or edit. You guys do a great job of being cordial, respecteful, etc. Thanks, andre

Saw this on the news tonight and realized I had it on my computer. A pop up box keeps opening with an agreement to get rid of of your dial up provider. Each time you X out the box it makes an international call. We have calls to Austria on the bill that came today. We have 10 cents a minute...
