March 29, 2007 - PA Streams.... FFPA was from one end of the state to the other. Fishing time was extremely limited...however a few minutes was able to be spent at the well-known waters pictured below. The Erie trib outing began well. One steelie was landed right off the bat on a black stone nymph. The action though quickly came to a screaching halt with a broken rod. Snapped on a sucker no less!!! It is safe to say the Erie Sucker Run has begun. The water was green, but dropping and clearing fast.
The central PA on-the-water-time was even less. The water was once again green, with a blue tint and in the bushes. No time for waders so the technique was to just flip a bugger out in the current and swing it in. A big brown bugger! High water = streamers and fish tight to the bank. And believe it or not, a brownie smashed it! Awesome!! Visuals were killer as the fish was only a few feet away. Hook-set sent the rod tip right into the brush along with no fish at the end of the line. Game over...time to go.
