imo that's the best stretch of tubmill... also love the no fishing on sunday's rule.

trashcan man(i hope you don't mind me calling you this), did you see the size of the cooking grate that was in the deep hole upstream from there before the bridge? We cooked a nice brownie on it, was great.  I always keep a knife, a pill container of mixed spice, and some folded tin foil for the occasion in the chest pack.

I can't blame TTC for cutting off the stockings.  A typical case of too many non members hammering the creek after a club stocking and keeping everything they catch.  If you want to find a non stocked stream off the beatin' path or get excited about one trout rising after your home made fly, that's one thing.  But, I don't care how many projects you do on a stream or how many a club or state stocks, the trout will get cleaned out.  Word gets around and a can of corn or two will put to rest this bizarre fantasy of catch and release people that trout will hold over and be catchable all the time.  I took the kids to a couple of annouced trout stockings this year from the state and on one occasion the suck ups with the pick up trucks who have the tanks in the beds of their trucks were acting like they didn't know where they were taking the fish.  I mean, come on, you're driving the truck but you don't know where you're going?  On the other occasion all the suck ups showed up with floaters and took the trout out of sight.  All these trout were catchable that evening and the next day, but why annouce times and then try to hide them.  I may have gotten a little of the topic, but a load of pelletheads can make grown and or old men act very strange.

sometimes the truth hurts,,buckets of trout =  grown men lying and making fools of themselves.

some people callme the conemaugh kid caus ie fish it liek a champ

being called the conemaugh kid is like being called the richest dude in seward.....either way it ain't good.

havent floated the river yet.  Havent had any weekends free since early may, but I have been paddling out a bit in the kayak and spending most of my time fishing the tailwaters of the conemaugh river dam.

My weekends are now free for the rest of the summer, so I want to get a float scheduled. 
 
You been fishing it at all and are you interested in floating it with me?

 

I'm a Bolivar res myself. We should meet.

I am trying to get a float scheduled for August 8th.  PM me for more information. :)
