Big Fishing Creek Report

Details

Last Updated on Wednesday, 15 May 2013 13:54

I was unable to spend too much time on Fishing Creek on the evening of the 14th, but I was able to view the water and note that the stream had good flow and was clear.  Unless a real gulleywasher hits our area, Fishing Creek should be in nice shape for the upcoming weekend.  Since Fishing Creek and Penn's Creek share most of the same hatches, see the report on Penn's Creek for some basics on approaching Fishing Creek now.
