If you have come for the Drakes your a bit early this year given the higher than normal water level and the hot bright weather. I would expect that about Wed or Thur. we should start to see some strong emergence but the bright sun will keep it a evening affair, maybe by the coming weekend things might be back to normal and the hoards gone. We were at Spring Creek Sunday for a drive after seeing our Granddaughter in State College, it was packed and not the kind of environment we come to expect as a place to fish, just to many people in a small space. All the trout in Spring Creek are getting pounded to death , I'll bet the Trico's will again be a bust with very picky fish that are scared to rise, kind of reminds you of the Missouri trout not taking Trico's! If our sport is loosing people you sure can not tell it from around here, more and more people every time you venture out, thank heavens that I and my friends have fished 40 years ago and had the stream all to our own and learned that some times it's more about just being there than it is in the numbers. What the heck is the attraction about getting close to others, how about giving the other guy some space and pratice good manners. Don't stop fishing just maybe find a hidden spot and not one next to your neighbor.
We are trying to gather some information on how to get rid of barbary, if you have been on Penns you'll know all about it, it has chosed some of the paths off to foot traffic, has anyone gotten rid of it- if so tell us how. This might be a great winter project for us local guys.
