Ridley Creek

fished ridley creek today. was an alright day finally saw the Black Stone hatch today. very sporadic hatch but it did happen. 3 fish today all three caught underneath, disappointed today in the afternoon too many people on such a small creek.

Clarks Creek

Fishing today was stellar, i trekked out to Clarks Creek with one of my fishing pals J.R.. Its been a while since i have been to Clarks close to a year. Expecting the BWO and close range fishing tactics Clarks Creek produced the first 20+ fish day of the year. At first fishing started out alittle slow, but things soon changed. Clarks was teeming with trout. not only a 20 + fish day but gland slam of trout twice. Brownies, Rainbows and Brook trout today on dries, nymphs and streamers. What a great day: weather was clear cool and sunny, water was gin clear and cold and the fishing was a blast. The best day of the season with a total of 12 trout landed for me and about 15 total hook ups, my pal J.R. posted a 10 + fish day proudly sported his 6ft 3wt. Great day cant wait till my next trip to clarks hopefully soon....

Little Lehigh Revisited

Fished the Little Lehigh once agin. today was a great day for early season, the bwo made and appearence and 4 wonderful trout fell victim to my flies. two trout big rainbow were excess of 16in with the biggest being close to 18in. pictures will follow. another streambred brownie today good day under heavy fishing pressure i didnt see anyone else catch any fish, just stay away from the crods and wait to see some rises and fish will follow.

The run at Boiling springs

today i ventered west to fish the Yellow Beeches. Four fish today, and i earned them.
the first fish was a 3 in stream bred brownie, hit olive nypmh size 18. net was a foot long rainbow on the same fly. early season olive works best here. next color will be bronze will cover sulfur and light cahill. next two fish were quick hooked beefy rainbow on the bridge hole on olive bead headed glass caddis, first fish landed second fish on and off. last fish was in the same spot first two came from. switched tecniques went to longer rod for better drift it paid off with nerf shape rainbow. good day today weather was nice but stream was low and clear. hopefully next trip the caddis will show up..

little lehigh

fished the little lehigh today. i got there mid-day and the stream was packed. i saw two kids kaying in the heritage section and managed to hook six fish and land four.
