I guess it is only fitting to have all our streams blown out yet again, Penns is at 3480 CFS as of 11:30 AM today and Spring Creek is at 420 CFS not at all what we needed to spend Black Friday in peace and quiet! I'm not really sure that even Spring will come down enough to fish on Sunday and Penns is out for the near term future. I'm not a fan of fishing durning deer season having gone thru two experiences in the past, one on Fishing Creek and the other on Spring Creek, not something I want again. We are coming up on that time of year when the trout seem to get in a funk and just are off, this is usualy the month of Dec and the better part of Jan, they then tend to pick the pace up in Feb. In no way do I mean they are all off the feed just that some of them seem not interested. I wish we would have the same old midge fishing we had years ago in the "Sipping Pool" on Fishing Creek, those guys would work all winter long but that is long gone. When the water comes down be on the hunt for the midges of winter and enjoy the sipping. A few years ago we fished during a midge hatch using very small brassies on greased leaders, watching the leaders move and setting the hook with a slip strike when it moved, a wonderful experience but make sure the light is in your favor. Happy Thanksgiving.
