    The LeTort.

    I believe it's a good walk from the Dickinson School Of Law.

    vatter, the Yellow Br. is your answer. It never gets fished out. Boiling Springs is only 5 min. from Mt. Holly. Drive over there and park at the lot next to the small lake in town. Walk down along the "run" to where it flows into the Yellow Br. (about 100 yds down). Fish from there down stream. It's the catch and release area. But, as I said before, the open water still has plenty of trout. If you fly fish, use an olive caddis pupae size 16 with a little weight. That's the only fly you'll need.  There is a nice fly shop right on the lake if you need flies or other info.        Good luck if you go

    Yes, from the run down past the Allenberry Playhouse is the special regs area. You can use a spinning rod but no bait in your possession. Check out a post in this section from salmo from a few weeks ago. I think he was on YB in the open water. You can access the open water from the same parking lot. Just walk over to the stone bridge and fish from there up past the swimming pool, there's always fish in there.

    You can use bait anywhere on the breeches except to regs area. From the stone bridge just down from the pool is open water upsteam so bait is ok
