I headed up to Green Lane today for some crappie on the fly rod, I got few but it was slow. I was hesitate to go to the fly only section because I figured the suckers should be starting to move upstream. Well, they are there and everywhere. I got about 30 suckers, while trying to catch some trout. I did get three rainbows and 5 little browns. Stones and a few caddis were around, but fished sucker spawn and caddis nymphs. Nice to see the trout from last year are still around. water temp. felt in the 50s and was 60 degrees outside and sunny.

That equals 38 fish, if you fished or 6 hours that means you caught a fish every 10 munites, I hope you were not dissapointed with your results.

I was there 4 or 5 days ago and caught suckers until my wrist couldn't take it any longer. They average about 12 to 14 inches. I also caught them on a small sucker spawn. At the dam, they are so thick you can't make a drift without hooking one. About 30% were hooked in the mouth and the rest were snagged. The snagged ones really give you a workout. Only managed one trout about 15in. but it sure was fun catching that many suckers.

Figured I'd add to this instead of starting a new thread. I fished the FFO section of the Perk at Green Lane today. Water was rather dirty with all the rain the past couple of days. Saw another guy catch a sucker when I pulled in. Fished right to the left of the dam/spillway facing down towards the bridge. Managed to land a nice 15 or so inch rainbow on a white woolly bugger once the sun came out for a little. Missed a couple other smaller ones. Nice day to be out and there are definitely at least a few trout left in there. Didn't get to walk upstream to check anywhere else out as a couple other guys showed up not long after me.

hurled many suckers over that dam the past 15 years or so, ashame they dont stock it like they used to. 100+ trout days were the norm back then.

was there yesterday and got 2 smallies and 5 bows. Hooked 3 other bows that were approaching the 15-18" range but couldn't bring to hand with 6x on. Also hooked a big LM bass. Still good days to be had, but not like the old days.

What are some "go to" fly patterns that work well on this stretch of the Perkiomen?
