The WVDNR has started to limestone dose the headwaters, and brook trout are making their way up there now. Last year my buddy did real well fishing that upper headwater section. I’m hoping the stream can recover, because it has some good potential. The bug life in the section I fished seemed very solid.

Glad to hear that! It's been several years since I've made my way down to WV
