Results of meeting on Penns scetion 5

I was sick with a terrible cold and could not make the meeting (presentation) concerning Penns Creek section 5 rule change. This does not take effect till 2019 and it was posted on YouTube, well I tried to watch it and all I saw was some old fart going on about how bad a job  is doing and on and on, ok get to your point, I just could not watch it any longer. From what I hear it will be the same as the Coburn section, a slot limit and continued stocking of fish to Glen Iron (some say it is too warm there but they did in fact stock it that far down years before), long story short is the Fish & Boat boys need to save money and this will get them where they want to be. The Coburn section has always had a very good population of resident fish and has suffered only because of one very good old guy that keeps taking all the big fish he catches, other than that the population might have gotten a bit smaller but has held up good.  Check out YouTube "PA Woods and Water channel to get a good idea of the relative size of fish there. I hear that Joe Humphries was one of the few who wanted the section to stay the same and to continue stocking, strange coming from him? We shall see what the future brings for our beloved stream, just don't screw up the FFF area!
   A short note on where to buy stuff if you shop local and need tying materials it is hard to beat Jerry at Fly Tiers Heaven but if you need more, try "Fly Fish Food" or "Worley Bugger Fly Co." for mail order they are very fast, your order will be there from Utah or Washington. If you are looking for the very best materials on the market, then try Worley's selection of " Natures Spirit". Everything that I have ever gotten from Natures Sprit has been top quality. I first ran into them when I ordered material from Trout Hunter, never knowing that it had been packed for them from Spirit,I was in Helena and found a huge selection of their material in a big sporting goods store, it was just a quality selection but they did not do mail order nor does Spirit sell direct to consumers. If you need something give them Worley a try.
