Neshannock Creek and Hell Run, Lawrence County, 3/11/12

Fished Neshannock yesterday, the weather was awsome and caught a bunch of fish. In the morning I got lots of ice forming on my guides, that was a pain, but it eventually got into the upper 60s. I fished from the shop down about a mile and then also by the covered bridge. Got around 12 all together on eggs, small streamers, and one on a green SWJ. Lots of stones coming off but didn't see a rise the whole time I was there so didn't bother tying on a dry. TONS of other people out enjoying the nice weather too.

Also Saturday evening I fished a small wild brown stream. For those of you who know it, it's a pain in the butt to fish! Almost took a few spills. Got one nice one around 10in or so and made a long distance release on a smaller one. Both hit small olive BH buggers. Saw quite a few hikers in the upper stretch.

Here's the pics.....

Nice report. Were you there during the lunker stocking? That first rainbow is nice and fat.


Grannoms will be here in a few weeks!

Yeah I was there for the lunker stocking on Saturday, but didn't fish much, it was still a tad high and colored. I think about half the fish I caught and saw caught on Sunday were from the lunker stocking. Nice fat, strong rainbows. Can't wait for the Grannoms! They always provide good fish action.
