You're a Yankees fan, Flying Fish, I don't expect you to understand much of anything. Certainly not the first time around. It's okay.

weaker than usual. just sayin'

This is my first post and I registered because I will back up and agree with what dr, trout said before. Lots and lots of my friends all watch these forums and a few others and do not post. We don't get why everyone jumps all over him like he said. It just shows a lack of maturity.

Good to finally jump into this place though I have been reading since 2007 mainly when the steelhead are running. I live in the Girard area so I'm right in the heat of the action.

Actually Cold, I am a Pirate fan, but am too embarassed to put their logo on with my name. Although admitting that may not be the smartest thing in world.

arguably one of the most picturesque streams to fish with the old growth forest as a backdrop

Forget the river.. ... was there today... see my notes in the May 16th fishing thread.....

I was "kinda figuring this" but thought MAYBE it would be high but NOT THAT HIGH to still be able to fish some pockets or eddies around the boulders/wood, etc, etc. Oh well, it definately looks like "if" i do go out even for an hour or two (due to the rain as usual) it looks as if toms run will be it. Any place up there close sell live minnows? Last time i was up there i couldn't find anything but crawlers.

 
Live minnies including shiners Pa Bait Rt.899 towards Marienville, great live bait store.

Route 66 sporting goods store on the right just after the Country market on the right heading north. And as far Docs posts I'll back him up he has no reason to be critisized for his pictures. I havent seen any pics from the criticizers since being on this site.
