Lost fly box - Spring Creek, PA & fishing report

I lost my green Umpqua UPG weekend fly box on Thursday 5/22 in the canyon section up stream from the old hatchery about mid way up stream from fisherman's paradise. If you hear about someone finding one I can identify the contents of the box and would love to get it back. I forgot to zip my lower pocket and it must of come out when I was landing a fish.

On a fishing note we spent 3 days fishing spring creek as Penns and Little J were unfishable due to all that rain. Spring was a little high and dirty but we had a few good evenings there. Most fish caught nymphing with even a couple of doubles for my son and I. My dad did okay on the dry. My brother caught most of his slinging streamers, but nymphing out produce them all. There was a good hatch of Sulphers going on and the fish seemed hungry. Most of our fish came on small PTs (18 & 20) type nymphs as well as a few on the rubber legged stone - didn't have much in my other fly box after losing the green one the first afternoon!!! :(

Even those small browns put up a nice fight and get everyone all jazzed up.

I was rewarded with this fish a few hours after losing my fly box so that made the day a little better. I lost another nice fish as he ran down stream and took me over the rocks. Sure wish the water levels were lower though.
