Since I love wild speculation and theories formulated by fly fishermen based on supposition, emotion and faded memory; I offer this:
http://www.fish.state.pa.us/images/fisheries/afm/2008/5x11_24brook.htm
and ask the question WHY?
Is it increased pressure due to the publicity of the Special Regs causing increased mortality or were the PFBC dudes wearing orange and all the fish bolted when they approached? ;-)
I have fished all of those streams with some regularity and I can tell you they are not the friendliest environs so I really wonder what might be the reason since I don't believe the water quality has declined significantly.
If it is increased pressure it must be all of those "poachers" braving a citation and almost impenetrable Rhododendron for a crack at those dinks!
Any ideas?
