Let us know for sure. That is very encouraging. This weekend is going to be great up there. There were quite a few guys fishing Walnut yesterday and the Elk webcam is showing a few guys fishing there today.

Smolts are being stocked this week.
LE water temp 33* and lots of ice along the south shore will impead spring runs of fish.

i got out today for about a hour caught 1 old fish. talked to some guys who caught 8 and they said most were pretty fresh. water is clearing up now i seen about 5 other fish moving in the clearer water most looked fresh. even see a few raise i dont think they were hitting bugs but they were active. no smolts so far i think they go in tomarrow but as long as you stay away from the big holes were they dump them in there not to bad. creek still has good flow so it might spread them out though.

There's a lot of guys out on Elk today!!

Headin up tomorrow.... Might have to skip elk if its too crowded and hit a smaller westside trib.

Fished today. Still melt water slowing the fishing up during the midday. A few fresh fish and even more fisherman....Some of the smaller streams have NO fish!!, Believe it, along with areas on the bigger streams. If we do get a spring run expect the suckers to be traveling with them. Most if not all the LE tribs have their smolts planted with more to fallow in the next few days. I would say their will be more fishermen then fish this weekend.

That is for sure! It should be a great weekend up there though, but the crowds are going to be heavy.

I overheard a guy in the bar yesterday while skipping work and watching some march madness say that he was up on Wednesday and just caught 3 suckers. Didn't sound like there were too many fresh fish from listening in, but a few fresh ones.


Was that guy anyone on this board... at Zooky's yesterday?

there are fresh fish you just have to find them. i didnt fish elk today but i fished crooked and got 11 from 7 till about 10. about half were fresh fish. water is a little off color but if you fish pools at the end off riffles there are fish there. we seen at least 4 pairs of fish spawning so they have to be fresh fish. i will be back out tommarow hopefully today was not a fluke. elk was packed today from what i heard were i was i seen two guys all morning.

can anyone give me directions to seratania? not sure of the spelling. i have googled the heck out of the place and can not find directions. I know there is a fishing store a few minutes from it that we stopped at. Thanks

were are you coming form i90 or 79. if you come from 70 get off at mckean exit and head west that is west road when yo get to the stop sign you are there. if coming of 90 get off at rrt832 exit and head south go around the curves and the creek will be on your right. there is a parking area at the intersection of 832 and west road.

not sure where i am going to be coming from yet. Just need to know the name of the road the parking access is for the saratania creek to put into gps. thanks bowhunter

Skibo - If you click on the first link I posted, there are gps coordinates for the parking lot on Sterrittania Rd. It's the link "Directions' in bold letters.

heritage thank you so much. I guess i was so off on the spelling haha! Do you guys think it is worth going? i have beenreading reports of peoiple saying the season is pretty much over and there are not many fish
