This is my first stream report since joining. Had a great day on spring creek air temp in the low 60's did not check water temp. Water was up but fished great, started out with a brown scud caught 4 and missed about as many in an hour. Only had a few hours to fish. Olives were coming off sporadic the whole time I was there. Right before I was getting ready to leave I started to see some risers so I tied on a dry for the first time this year, caught one on the third cast. All the fishing I have done this year has been nymphs, it was good to do some dry fishing just to bad I had to leave right after. all in all I cant complain though. probably caught 10 fish today and missed more.

Nice report, thanks for sharing. Looks like it will be blown out for a few days. Right now it is around 460 cfs and climbing vertically.

It has been a comically bad weekend for fishing. Everything is blown out and today the wind is gusting to 36 mph. I'm glad I live in central PA and not just visiting for the weekend.

I agree, I was lucky enough to have half a day off to go on friday. I knew that after saturday it would be a while until anything was fishable. I have been waiting all spring for the little j to be even close to fishable. I live about 45 min from both and have only been able to fish spring this year.
