20 mile
Hey guys,
Can anyone tell me what part of 20 mile is in New York...? Sounds stupid I know, but I really have no clue.

Look at the "maps" section on the main page. You will see that the N.Y. line is SEVERAL miles upstream.

Heads up:
Watch for posted areas before going upstream into 20 mile in New York. One needs permission to fish these areas from the land owners. And, remember your New Your License/(s) if you do venture into New York.
Be careful 20 mile in New York is quite a hike in and out. Be prepared and ware some hunter orange. Chris

That's alright. I generally go from the mouth to just a bit past the first bridge.

If you go "just a bit" past the first bridge, you are tresspassing.

Lol awesome....truthfully I was PLANNING on going past, but now that I'm aware I won't. I did well enough last year around the mouth, and it'll just have to do this time around as well.

Okay well Hirtzell road was lined with cars, not to fish for steel, but to chase the "huge run" the rain brought on. Pete dont u live in Northeast?

Nope, Harborcreek. Hence, the name. Someone must have been spreading rumors about fish being upstream to relieve lower 20 pressure. I usually fish during the week, and rarely saw anyone last fall when I fished. I think we need another good rain or two to get fish up there. Thanks for info.

I've fished near two falls on the east side that Nagy says are impassable
and watched fish after fish clear them. It just takes a really good rain.
I was fishing the falls at 7 mile (which are now posted) with another
guy a few years ago, and remarked that we were watching the impossible
as about 30 or 40 fish cleared them easily.

I always thought that the fish would never make it past the falls at 16 mile until this year when we had that last rain and the fish were clearing it...

Steelhead are sick units guys. Believe it or not, but late season go to 12 mile and look upstream from the falls. Gaurantee you see atleast one, I have. And this was before I started walking them above the falls for release after being caught at the bridge, its good to give em atleast a chance of makin' babies. Ahh there was a time when I thought walnut creek waterfall was just too much for these fish, glad I know otherwise. Get off ur butts and do some walking, it will make you respect this species a heck of a lot more finding them where they should'nt be.

I may have take place in a "restocking" program at 12 a time or two.. 
I have the right to remain silent.....I just don't have the ability
