An article in the latest PA outdoor news states that PFBC made a mistake in putting DH regs on 2 sections of Pine Creek, and now they want to remove them. GIVE ME A FRIGGIN BREAK. Just enforce the regs, who cares if the WCO doesn't like them, who cares if a couple insignificant special interests don't like them, they can fish some where else or just abide b the regs.
There are 75 miles of trout water on Pine Creek, anglers other then the kill it and grill it crowd deserve a break from the slaughter of fish they pay for too. It's not about whether the fish will survive until June 15, most years they will, hell there are brookies in the river nearly every year until June 15, I know I've caught them.
You say you want to do the right thing, well here's the right thing to do, make regs for our largest freestone trout stream that every one can live with, for instance protoect our brook trout, make the entire river Brook trout enhancement, that will protect the brookies that use the river, by the way that is why the original Commssion was formed and still should be the sole reason for the existance of the commssion, protection of fisheries.
One group is concerned about young anglers, well I am too, teach them conservation, make them abide by the regulations too. The group in Jersey Shore that is so concerned about kids angling in the gorge should take the lead in teaching kids conservation, they should not be teaching them to kill their limit. I got nothing against kids fishing, I like the fact that fathers take their kids fishing, but the fathers are supposed to teach conservation aren't they? I've never seen many kids fishing on Big Pine, so how many kids are we talking about?
