Hi all! New guy here. I bought my first fly rod in April. Now I have six. Retiring just in time for the 22 PA trout season.
Anyway, this year, my buddy/mentor and I have fished Middle Creek (Snyder Co), White Deer, and Penns Creek.
On the White Deer FFCR (State Forrest Land), we've seen multiple instances of someone cutting down trees and dropping them into/across the creek. WTF. Most of these appear to be an irrelevant hindrance to wading. I can't think of any contributing to trout habitat or security.
What I do see is these trees providing excellent access for Mink to dive bomb trout. Yes, I have seen Mink running these trees and I have caught scarred trout from pools with trees in them.
Can anyone explain what someone is trying to achieve here?
