Still chasing Trout in the snow

Got out an hour today before dark and no dice. Snagging Ice shelves was new.

Been out after big post spawn browns and ‘Bows pre-spawn. 20 degrees down to single digits. Today I was okay in thin lined pants and a soft shell with sweat shirt underneath wearing latex surgical gloves . I probably didn’t stay out long enough to start getting the chill though. Going to have to get a better set of clothes for this. I cat go to Pulaski with border closing so making the best of winter pa trout. No monsters but a few over 3 lbs. Fingers to froze and couldn’t find phone but did keep a fat brown for dinner.

Went above a large lake that holds Striper and a few big brown to a small trib. No lake run but a nice 17” ‘bow. The ones beached I got below the house. Not as big as the ones stuck at the dam but pretty anyway.

Found about 30 in the tourist pool. A little spot that comes from under the houses downtown and train station before it hits the Lehigh. I threw back a few 17”+ brookies, ‘bows, and browns. My brother caught a 19” and it’s his biggest ever.

The tiny creek above this is accessible before it runs under houses. It’s easily my favorite in the spring before it dries up and tourist fishermen over run it. My best in the tiny creek is 20.5” on a 5wt.

Waters been way too high, going to check a few really shallow tribs that might hold a few then plot a run up up the small tribs on the finger lakes and lake O later in the week. They had a tremendous amount of water and now winters in full swing with lake effect hitting daily it seems
