Water levels have been pretty poor on the river over the past couple weeks, and the forecast doesn't show much rain for the next week. Less than ideal as spawning should begin any day. We really wouldn't recommend disturbing the fish under these conditions. We want to ensure the fish are in the best shape possible for the spawn. Thankfully, there are plenty of good options this time of year. The state began their fall stockings this week, and the streams in our area include: Roaring Brook, S. Br. Tunkhannock, Brodhead, Bushkill, Harveys Creek, Bowmans Creek, and the Lackawaxen. A full list of fall stockings can be found on the PFBC website. You can also continue to chase smallmouth. This time of year, you have a good opportunity to find a trophy. And then of course there's salmon and steelhead just a few quick hours away!
