My legs are tired and my back hurts, so must have been fishing all day.  First time I've been able to fish the opener in 5 years and this is weather we get?  C'mon.  Was fortunate to find a stream that handled the rainfall OK.  Once out in the rain, it didn't seem so bad.  Even were a few periods of relative dryness.  Kept 3 of the nicer ones for dinner tonight and let a few more swim another day.

Hopefully you got out and even caught a few.

most Clarion County streams were blown out

Been watching horizontal rain pretty much all day hereMaybe I'll get out tomorrow

did well on s. branch of french creek...had the whole stream to ourselves by 9am...upper end of creek was surprisingly low...traveled to lower stretches around 1pm to find that they were too fast to fish...ended up in edinboro to catch just one more before calling it a day...ended up with around 30 caught between the 3 of us with 2 palaminos mixed into the bunch with one being about 18"

we caught around 20 between the 4 of us plus six bonus crappies all about 12 inches for crappies the trout averaged about 12 to 13 inches decent trout for a change fished a lake figuring the streams we fish were probably blown. caught all fish on silver and blue castmasters in 1/4 oz

worst openin day of trout in my book so far but im only 20

Attn 313 PM sent to you

Fished little shenango in mercer county for couple hours before work. A slightly dirty but not bad. Good level (i was surprised) and flow. 2 suckers and a carp! Will give it another try this week if the rain holds off.

ha good luck man i live right by it and it ant looking good any time soon gona be high for awhile you have any luck?

I also fished the little shenango on opening day for a few hrs no trout...then went upstream to Hadley looked at the creek and it looked even worse. Skunked on opening day how about that! The amount of rain that fell on sat. that creek should be high for awhile.
