Penn's is getting to the point of being safe to fish during this time of year, temp's are getting close to 70 and that is just to high for us to stress the trout, try going lower below Glen Iron on down for smallmouth bass. Give the Susquehanna River a try for bass but the river is still a bit on the high side so be careful. If you want to get really nasty get a small boat with a trolling motor and launch at the Mouth of Penn's Creek/Middle Creek & Susquehanna Rive and go upstream to the Route 15 bridge and fly fish for muskies- so really big guys live here!!!
Trico time is coming this next week and Spring & Bald Eagle have them, heck Fisherman's Paradise on Spring has a really great spinner fall and you can enjoy them from shore never getting your feet wet! Early morning on clear days with low humidity are the best, it forces them to egg lay fast before they dry out and the enmass falls really bring the trout up. Also now is the time to fish #16-18 lt. tan caddis, ants both black and brown (red) wet or dry and of course a #12 BLACK beetle plopped near the banks in shallow water- hold on!
It's time to get creative with our time early and late are the key now but make sure you keep an eye on the water temps, lets not kill any fish by over stressing them. It's Art's Fest week in State College so it will be full of guys in the morning and evening so find a secret spot!
