I think im going to give that a try this year missed it last year,

yeah early oct usually w/sufficent rains usually brings them in in mass i usually wait till there is good numbers at least as far as the high tressle or legion hole are any that far up yet?

Went down to elk creek access last night saw a couple of guys hook into some steel but no one could land them still too much lake in them.
Checked out trout run at lunch there were a couple of dozen fishing in the lake, did not see anyone hook into them. I think I might take the boat to trout run tonight; maybe I can pi$$ of the shore fishermen. There were two fish in trout run by the little waterfalls.

Never mind... Not worth a response...

where is the luv????

Honestly, I am about as likable a guy as you will ever meet.  That said, there are things that drive me crazy and I will almost always speak my mind about them (Trespassers, Poachers, People who crowd out others on streams when the entire stream is open, litterbugs, Discourteous boaters and jetskiers, Thieves, and those who condemn honest sportsmen for keeping a legal fish).  I have always held myself to a high set of standards and ethics.  I expect the same from others, particularly sportsmen.  I can guarantee you that 90% of the lands that are now posted and nonaccessible are that way because of a few irresponsible sportsmen that ruined it for everyone.  I will get off of my soapbox now...

I don't know if masterflyman was referring to Tim, but if he is I have a HARD time believing his accusations.  Tim is a very good fisherman who catches more than enough fish w/ out snagging.

I talked to Tim that day and fished just up stream for a while.I bealive Stillhead was fishing Manchester at the time.As Tim said he was there and at the time,there was only about 3 fisherman.Tim was not using a fly rod or 3 flys on.He was working very hard for a fish and even trying to hide(low profile,staying back away from the hole).Not like after my 2 mile hike upstream when that hole had 12 guys around it.Some nut deep in it and every fish hooked was walked way down stream to be dragged in.The report is BS.But I will tell what,if you want to talk about unsportsman BS.What about the guys who circle the falls above Manchester and drag there line through a foot of water.Some days I just want to scream WTF.Matt

Just got done reading the report , absolutely ridiculous!  Not only was I using a spinning rod, but I was using a single egg not flies.  I was not swinging anything either, I was kneeling way back away from the hole sight fishing to a pod of freshies (treefrog can confirm that...).  I'm about 99% sure this is a troll from this site who wasn't even there...  The only people who were fishing this area at the time were Stillhead, Treefrog, and one other older gentleman. 
 
If you look on the second picture, you can see my split shot about 4 inches from the fishes mouth, with line going deep into its mouth... you can also see the line going into the mouth of the third fish if you look close.  I can assure you I catch plenty enough fish fairly that I have no need to snag/line fish.  Anyone who has fished with me can assure you this.
 
Thanks,

WOW THAT WAS POWERFUL....

There are 152 chromers swimming up Walnut as we speak, and Elk is getting 237.  The eastside tribs are void of fish movement, except 20, which will receive 78 fish this evening.  Considering that there have only been 653 fish staging off the PA shoreline, I think that's a good run.  Don't hurt yourselves getting to them.  There will be many, many more to come.  The largest fish moving in is only 9.5 lbs, and he's pi$$ed.  Something about a jones for chartreuse powerbait.  I think he's chasing a dragon.  Good luck, fellas.

Water temp is actualy 69 degrees off walnut.  He's full of $hit if he flat out told you there was 0 fish in the tribs. 
 
As for steelheadfillet...  Why don't you go catch 16 more off the end of the pier tomorrow in the 5-7fters, maybe you'll get washed off.

It is rainning right now, 10:00 pm.  The cold front has come through.  Walnut was low and clear today.  There were a few fish in the very lower end of the creek.  I checked the stop sign hole and most of the project waters this morning around 10:00 am.  I saw no fish in any of the holes there.  I did not go any further upstream, so I have no idea about what is up there.
 
If you want to come up, go ahead, but unless a ton of fish come in tonight, don't expect a lot of fish.  I guess if you walk around, you will find some fish.  Good luck.

"cant wait till snow cold temps"

Amen
