Monessen, about 22 miles as the crow flies south of Pittsburgh. I have begun, over the past 2-3 years to travel toward the center part of the state during hatch season because of the dirth of hatches in the local area. If you like to fish dry flies, you should look into Oil Creek, Neshannock, and Slippery Rock as three fairly close waters that probably have some hatch activity. I have fished each of them, but am not familiar with the hatches. Of the three, I have heard that Oil Creek has an interesting diversity of Spring hatches.
Oops, I just realized the last post was directed to the original poster. I thought it was him replying to me. Anyhow, I'll leave mine there anyhow.
