Spring Creek, Centre County, PA: September 18 & 19, 2009

Got a chance to fish my “Home Water” recently. I say Home Water in quotes, because although, I live 3-hrs away I consider Spring Creek to be just that. I know it better than any other stream and I find myself testing my skills [...]

Well, it has taken me a little while to get this trip report posted. Sorry folks – but I have a good reason. My camera took a little swim in the Little Juniata. I guess I should call it my ex-camera. I let it dry out for several days – no [...]

Fresh Spring Steel

On Tuesday March 24th, 2009 I took a trip to 20-Mile Creek, one of the East-side Pennsylvania Lake Erie Tribs. This stream is located 20 miles east of the town of Erie (as you might guess from the name). Steelhead were everywhere! Many had obviously been in the [...]
