I had a mere three hours to fish as I was passing through the area...my hours of research suggested Fishing Creek was the way to go. First, i am incredibly impressed with how clean the road and parking areas were! Wow, just fabulous to see people paying attention to all the do not litter signs. Where I fished was a very fast road...The Narrows, I believe. I got on the water around 5pm at the beginning of a TCA which was pure luck I suppose. I was chucking a streamer...which generally where I always start out of habit. Then, spotted some risers so moved on to an elk hair caddis. First cast and pow! The fish won, though. After another few casts, it appeared as they had vacated the area. I'd heard they were spooky fish....never saw another rise in that section.
I didn't have time to explore much, but the tight banks and big boulders and lack of river paths seemed to suggest working your way up or down is difficult in this area. I wonder if people drive from pool to pool? Anyway, really loved the place and atmosphere....and the cleanliness! Great job PA!
