I've hiked around that area and probably crossed it backpacking. I just never really think about fishing that much on those trips.

Alright, after seeing this I know I've been to Angel Falls before. That's on the loyalsock trail.

I'm sure the LT crosses or runs along the stream at a couple points. If you like little native brookies take a pole.
Quick few hour trip. I’m going to be traveling a lot and with the rain/cold I had to get out. Would’ve let go but my brother slid down hill and after I took a pic I mumbled something just before he bopped it on rock. I said “I was going to release that”. He said “no we aren’t releasing that.” Well alright, can’t argue now lol. He’s back working but the new gig works 15-20 hrs/week. Maybe if I’m not consumed at work I’ll kill a few deer for him.
Saw about 20 including some over 24-26” but looking gaunt from months of heat. It’s fish in barrel if you don’t mind the fall to your death slipping at top. Happy to share location. I didn’t harass much and way downstream near Lehigh always holds a ton. Easy shallow holes picked over but deep, hard fishing areas always hold fish. Chance at one 15 lbs+ in a low flow creek if not a Brook.

That is a tank of a trout but to be honest, I would not expect that trout to taste good. Nature has its anomalies, that trout fits that bill.
I won’t be eating it lol. I gave him some McCormick applewood dry rub lol. If I could’ve spoken faster it would still be swimming. Unless it’s Mahi or Tuna chances are I’m throwing it back lol.
Just didn’t want the Forum to think in all my travels and lack of attention I lost that Midas touch lol.

lol. Bootfoot will condemn your harvest activities on principle.
I say send it to someone you love... I had this sister once....She received a custom LMB head for a shifter knob in her 72 Pinto. Looked great there and made a listing Impression....52 yrs worth and counting.

Just one salmon landed yesterday for me and only a couple of hookups. I prefer to sight fish rather than blind cast so spotting something through the downpour moments were few and far between.
One friend landed two, had several more hookups and another friend went 1 for 1. The other 3 with us enjoyed beer along with us.
Today the river is almost at 1500 cfs so we are enjoying a Bloody Mary at the bar as I type this. We’ll see how flows decrease and head out below the lodge when it’s time.

Stop sight fishing and just fish. It works.

What argument? If you see fish, cast to them. If you don't see fish, cast to them

What an epic day today. A push of Cohos lasted all day and all 6 of use feel like we are well beyond our years. We only kept 3, the freshest of the freshest if you will but the amount of hookups was at a level we’ve never experienced up here. If they weren’t mouth hooked, a quick palm of the reel was an easy decision, the next one will be.
A little something to take home.
