PA, here I come

Next week I’ll get to try my luck on Spring Creek, one of
Pennsylvania’s legendary trout waters. Joining me (and guiding
me to glory) will be my friend Kurt, a guy I’ve grown up with and
spent A LOT of time on the water with. Usually it’s me pointing
out fish for him, so it’ll be nice to reverse roles; especially while
fishing a PA river on a warm June evening.

I’ve only fished Spring Creek once while doing a stint at nearby
liberal arts college. We fished it on a cold fall afternoon, trying to
convince its brown trout to take our streamers. I think I caught a
fish or two, but my memory is foggy. Anyway, I’m excited to
visit it again and test its reputation. Sulfurs and caddis are being
tied and stockpiled in anticipation of a fine evening hatch, but I’m
secretly plotting to cast BIG bunny streamers once night falls.
Should be fun!
