Letort would be a great place to start and I personally would start at the headwaters where the temp is a bit warmer than downstream and give it a go.
I've long been tempted to fish that section at night, however most of the upper Letort where there is public access is special regulation and night fishing (at least past legal time) is not permitted there.
On PFBC special regulated waters (ala Delayed Harvest, Catch & Release), there are no longer any time-of-day restrictions. That was a rule change this year, which I had heard talk about in a proposed rule making, but then heard nothing more on. However, I contacted the PFBC and they pointed me to the 2013 summary reg book (which I obviously didn't read). And it's in there. The only way that a special reg area would be closed at night is if the property owner does not permit access at night (say a stream that flows through a county park that is closed dusk to dawn). The signs on the water may still say different, but I think the regulation on the books would be on the side of a night angler.
See page 2, whats new for 2013 and page 14, and call the PFBC if you don't want to rely on the collective ignorance of the Internet forums ;-)
