Hello all. I just registered as a member. I am 10 years into my retirement and have moved from NY to North Carolina.....cheap and warm. We relocated about 6 years ago.
We purchased a trailer near Gouldsboro, in the Poconos, about 3 years ago. My two hobbies, or passions , are bird dogs and trout fishing. Since spending summers in Pa, we arrive in June and leave in Sept., I have been driving all around visiting many streams. I have not gotten around to learning any of them well.
This year I intend to concentrate my efforts on a single stream. I train my setter in SGL 127. It is the nearest to our trailer. The Lehigh runs through there and I think I will concentrate on the Lehigh from were it enters SGL 127 down to Thornhurst. It is about the size stream that I like, not too big and not too small. All I have caught there has been chubs but I have seen fish in the river.
My question is is it a good basket to be putting all my eggs into. Does it hold trout through the summer months. I might be better to go to the Lehigh dwnstream from the Walter Dam if I want to have better fishing in August. I liked the section through SGL 127 because I could work the dog , then grab an hour or so of fishing.
Any comments or suggestions are welcome.
