We don’t SPOT BURN, some creeks we mention and some we will not. Remember you should just fish by the tree that is next to the rock. That is our favorite spot.

June 8th, 2026 Stream Reports

Central PA Fishing 

Slim pickings, with is heat and sky blue days, fishing has been challenging to say the least. You can catch fish early and late in the day. We need rain and some cloudy days to makeup for the slow days. As far as flies, go small, like 18 to 20 size. You can always “skitter” a stonefly around to get one to explode on it.

 Eastern PA 

Water is low. Please check temps on the warm days before fishing. The Manatawny is done for now. The Tulpehocken water temps are holding under 65 degrees. Not sure how long that will last. CFS is low, under 100, should be at 200 cfs. Here in the east, WE NEED RAIN. There is no significant rain in the forecast, 90 degree weather.

Lehigh River 

We are done for the spring season. Water temps are too high, not fair to the fish. Overall it was a really good season once it got started. The Pohopoco is always ready to be fished. Water levels could be low. You never know what the release will be.
