My buddy and I hit one of our favorite PA native brookie streams yesterday. We were very pleased with the conditions of the stream for late August. We've always caught fish on this stream, but it is classified as a low biomass brookie stream. On this day we caught the most fish we have ever caught and 2 of the larger native brookies we have ever caught in PA.
Anyway, they were truly spectacular fish and I know you will appreciate them. Attach file:  1176135_515926095154045_11239796_n.jpg (63.25 KB) 1240527_515926238487364_1140902402_n.jpg (66.73 KB)

I would say the fish are having a good year. They look especially healthy and well-fed.
My brother would still consider them "dinks," but I, and many other mountain brookie anglers, would call them "monsters."

When ripe fruit is not harvested, it rots on the proverbial vine.

37.65883 x 46.86784 B-) The 1st fish was right @ 10". The 2nd troot was just shy of 10". Those are 2 different sets of hands in the pics. My buddy caught the 1st fish. I caught the 2nd. The 1st fish had some serious girth.
