anybody have luck over the weekend

i fished elk and walnut and i was very pleased. many fresh fish and very few people. walnut was holding lots of fresh fish with many holdovers. i am not lying when i say that i had Manchester hole to myself. Manchester wasn't holding a ton of fish but enough to keep me busy.. i soon realized why Manchester hole was not crowded when i saw many stringers of limits leaving from the water fall. took the walk up to the waterfall and i was amazed... the fish were stacked like i have never seen.. when the foam cleared you could clearly make out the hundreds of fish stacked in the hole. i switched from a streamer because it was very challenging not to foul hook one. first time in many years i did not use a tandem rig or a streamer.  lots of hookups but only 7 landed. elk was more crowded then walnut. upper elk was full. tried by rick road access and didn't see any hookups. i then went down to the legion hole. i was having luck on different hand tied mesh flies. tight lines

    We are going to build a wall, and the mupheres are going to pay for the wall. They're bringing snaggers, they're bringing ropers, they're spot burning.

    OH great, first a trout stamp then a Erie stamp and now a wall stamp......... SOB. 😡

    BTW there will no longer be bus loads coming to fish. They will be arriving by " The Trout Train". 🚂

    hi guys I forgot to mention... I fished trout run. I saw very little action. I foul hooked a small jack and the gentlemen next to me caught two while I was there. the holdovers that I did catch were majority male. I thought I had a snag the one time and it ended up being a fish. the fish barely fought and it was very colorful. this weekend was special for me because I caught my first steelie on a hand tied fly. believe it or not I actually caught three on the hand tied emerald.. I did hear that earlier in the morning the fish were stacked in Manchester. with the warmer water they moved up to the waterfall.. makes sense now. rick road access was very slow to.

    well.. keep forgetting, report pages are for reports man... and stop being so specific.. You ruined my day today. I`ll have you know your spot burning brought 100s of orange suited, power bait slingin, mustache havin fatzos to walnut crick and ruined my nude swim with the fishy session. Mom got me new floatiez. Was gonna try em out when the interweb brigade showed up mid pant drop. They tried fishing around me but the stillhed were too spooked. I had one taker though, on the big pink worm. He come up n hit it top water as i was standing there giving stillhed fishing pro tips to the yinzers. It's a little irritated still,but nothing a spongebob bandaid and some liquid skin cant fix.

    Boy I hate that when that happens. Learned real quick not to be nudy wading around shorline weeds when the northern's is lookin for bait fish.

    Got a sure cure fix from a old medicine man. Every eight hours, soak it in cider.

    No sh*t ,  hundreds of fish gone. Its like a ghost town.  Fish were there yesterday but gone today. Only logical explanation is chlamydia outbreak.
