I've never fished this river, but have plans to in April on some club waters where we're doing a big dam removal project. Looking forward to some new PA water that is just under an hour away from me.

It has been a few years since I was there but there used to be great hatches and good early morning Summer fishing.

I played guide this friday afternoon. My buddy got 3 fish 1 rainbow and 2 browns. One was a nice size fish close to 18inches.

To be honest the delayed harvest area was not impressive at all lots of flat shallow water and only a few good pools
