Status: online 		oldesckool, what are you used to fishing, Alaska? Considering how much use it gets I'd say it's a wonderful and fairy clean lake. Maybe instead of bitching about it being a "pig sty" you could bring a garbage bag & make it in your eyes a better place. There's a fair (if not above average) amount of trout both lakes hold even in Summer. Like I said where have you been fishing?!

Status: offline 		my name is justen and i am a fisherman that has been visiting the lakes since i was a child. i work for a company in mars pa called sub-technical inc. we have a permanent and viable solution to save hereford manor,through the use of poly-urethane grout. the company has a long successful track record of projects of this size magnitude. if you so wish please check out our website at sub-technical.com. keep in mind that this post was not intended as a advertisement for my employer,nor a solicitation for bussiness. i am a local that resides in harmony and would hate for the area to loose such a wonderful set of lakes. i am just putting my opinion out there because i know sub-technicals process will be successful.

Status: offline 		Does anyone know if they stocked already at Hereford???  I've been hearing that they did although the fish commission web site calls for it to be in November.  If the hit reports I'm getting are correct and they HAVEN'T stocked, it's gonna be fuuuuuun once they do.

Status: offline 		Went out this morning.  A few people fishing along the parking lot for bass and trout.  Not much happening.  Went to the far end past the stump and nothing doing.  Worked my way back around and finally got into fish across from the parking lot where you have to walk in from the road.  Seemed like most of the fish movement was in that cove.

Lake is about 5 feet lower than usual, and of course the roads are locked up for the winter.

Status: online 		They stocked it today, although the stock truck did break down, and they later stocked at 3.

Talking to some guys, uhh, and Frank, seemed like everyone was disapointed. For the most part the average trout was 9-10 inches. The biggest I'd seen was a 15, and also a 12. Doesn't even compare to the last couple stockings..
