I hit the Connellsville area again today. I only caught two. Both nice sized rainbows. Water is slightly stained, a little high, but very fishable.

If you got a tagged fish, and it was a Smithton Tag, that fish has been in there for what, 5-6 years anyhow. Smithton quit tagging that long ago. Went over yesterday with a pal. Water was perfect, however the fish were not cooperating. We each got 1 and lost 1. Fished about 3 hours.

I got two cases of beer so far . actually I got another one where the tag was taken off and released above ceder creek .

I caught a tagged under the Smithton bridge a few years ago, 3 maybe. Nobody could identify the tag # on here. Wasn't a Smithton and wasn't a W.N. Guess it could have made it's way from the Connelsville area, who knows. So your 2 tags were from W. Newton ?

Was out yesterday at Cedar Creek Park, water was clear as day but was ripping through there. Walked up and down the trail for about 4 hours and didn't catch a thing. Seems like a real good place if you have waders or a boat

Seems like a real good place if you have waders or a boat if you walk down past the first set of little rapids you will see a big flat rock on shore fish that area .

I hope that brown made it back into the river, what a fish! I know the blue tint near the eye is usually indicitive of a wild fish, but I thought wild fish in that river were rare. Great catch.

Great catch. Yes he is alive and well to fight another day! I didnt have my scale but it was 21" long and around 15" girth for an estimate of around 6lbs

Weekend isn't looking too nice right now. You may want to try and get out tomorrow or Friday if you can. LOTS of cats in the stretch from Turner Valley to the confluence at the Mon. I catch them all the time by accident in the deeper spots.
