No doubt my buddy’s will coheres me into going in the future ,just wont be right of way,ill go to little Juliana for my next fishing trip,

Went back to the youghegeny river friday to redeem myself from swimming in it 3 weeks ago ,well after an or so i turned around and found the 3 rocks i was by suddenly went under water ,they were releasing water out of the dam and i went swimming again and lost my fly rod to the gods ,I’m done with that place ,I found out that they release water on Friday Saturday and Sunday for the whitewater rafters ,to bad I didn’t know that at the time ,well its gonna cost me 420.00$ to replace what i lost ,i learned the hard way as they say, didn’t have a single bite either

Going to go back to the youghegeny river this Friday morning weather permitting to try the new breathable waders them neoprene ones aren’t made for this weather hoping for some big ones and some pictures to share , it’ll be catch and release maybe hook into one of them big smallmouths lurking the depths 🎣

I’ll do that I like taking fish pictures

2 mile below the dam

Castleman in pa is better smallmouth fishing than trout but in Maryland it switches to better trout fishing

I had a change of clothes to but undressed right in the parking lot of a very busy canoe Kayak launch site

Yes it was right in front of me the whole time , wished I had a Q-Tip though lol

Went to Youghegeny river in S W pa to do some trout fishing this is a tail water that runs cold all season,it was recently stocked and some friends went and had good success, however both buddy’s fell in even before starting to fish , they warned me about carrying my phone as not to ruin it if I fell in , I took there advice left the phone in the truck fished for awhile and pulled in a nice fat 14-15 inch rainbow, I like to take pictures but couldn’t,a little later I hooked a fatty that took me to my backing, 5-6-7 minutes later I had a 22-23 inch rainbow in the net and no phone to take pictures I was bummed,I was thinking boy them guys must be uncoordinated or something I’ve been in faster slipperier water what’s the big deal, Done for the day started out of the river and it happened,down I went over my head looking for my flyrod panicking and GLAD I DIDNT TAKE THE PHONE at least it was refreshing 😂😂😂

I meant to send this one from there also

I’ve been there 4 times this year every where from Tyrone down to the mouth can’t go wrong with any of the numerous spots to pull over and fish usually if you see vehicles that’s a better spot but my personal favorite is parking at the end of mountain rd in Barree and walking all the way into the gorge it’s a huge bend with a high wall on the one side , even if the little parking lot is full go in anyway, I’ve seen it full and fished all day with out seeing another angler streamers in morning switching to nymphing after sun is up and drys later in the day through evening, I’ll be there somewhere Friday afternoon and evening for the evening hatch here’s a couple pictures from there good luck

I believe your right as his father told me they fish for musky quite often I doubt to he was using the fly rod the rod on the ground kinda looks like the broken 6 weight martin i gave him but can’t confirm and didn’t ask as its not that important,photos were taken and fish released healthy to fight another day

I should mention his name is Luke Bowser From Hampton twp just north of Pittsburgh

Last year I met a kid on deer creek fly fishing I gave him 3 older flyrods I no longer use he stays in touch here is his latest work , he caught it using a Medusa swim bait

When we were kids the horse farm had a pond with crappies and bluegills in there like that what a blast man I miss those days my father would fillet for hours and tell us to keep ‘em coming
