Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone has fished this more remote section of Laurel Hill Creek. The river mostly flows through State Gamelands 111 and a section of Forbes State Forest here. Access seems fairly difficult, at least without a good 4WD vehicle. I'm considering parking in the State Game Lands and walking in about a mile, to where Sandy Run flows in. I like getting out to places far from roads where you'll be fishing all by your lonesome.
If you look at a map, there's a very distinct oxbow in the river right there, forming a small peninsula - that's the general area I'm talking about. It seems to me that this section must see very little fishing traffic, and might hold some good-sized fish, especially since the length of the river is stocked, not just about the dam.
Anyone fished these more remote sections (including the several miles between this spot and the dam?)? Also, anyone know anything about Sandy Run? Looks like a pretty little run in a steep gorge, could hold some nice wee brookies, but I don't know about the water quality.
