Welcome Johnnyquest (got to love the name. I haven' t seen that show in quite some time - Ever see it?). You will have fun with the crew here at this site. If you are thinking of getting into the world of fly fishing, this is the place to be. You can and will learn alot from this site and possibly hook up with someone near you to help you when you are on the waters. Welcome

..... the coast guard on lake erie. They know of a special/famous smallmouth that resides in the lake. Since Smalliehunter was so kind to the smallmouth species (worshiping them) this magical 18lb. smallmouth would bring him back to life, but first, BDH had to.....

Welcome Walker, hope you found a little piece of heaven with finding this site. You sure will get your laughs and fishing knowledge. Now where can you go and find both of those?

Welcome gptyer; you will have fun with this site and all the guys and gals involved with it. Now, go do some fishing and tell us about it.

Just wanted to send my Happy B-day wishes as well. Have fun and do some fishing.

I will look for Godzilla, he will save me and give me some good pick-up lines. He sees Godzilla with XXXXXXXXL waders on and he is fishing with ..........

Steeldrifter, keep up the good work. I am glad you made it past the first week and I am waiting to hear when the first month is past.

What type of fly would be good for those?

Glad you could join us Dave. You have come to the right place to get and find info. The people involved with this site are grrreeaatttt.

Hang on and enjoy the ride.

Welcome JSG, I hope you have a blast with this crew. I know I sure am. I have a little one myself (first) and it is good to still be able to get out from time to time. My wife and your wife must be very understanding for our passion to fish.

Fish on

Welcome flyuser, I hope your time here is as grand as mine.

Welcome mcfly, glad to see another pa boy on board. You must see all the fun these guys and gals have on this site. I have fished Neshanny but not the Rock. I did fish the Rock for bass in the summer time a while back with bait. Maybe I can meet you on Neshanny or you can show me some spots on the Rock.

Jump in and have fun.

Enjoy your day and get your butt out there for some fishing. Happy B-day.

I also would like to add and send my congrats for a job well done. This is a kick ass site and I love it. It is like an addiction; I need to get my fix. Keep up the good work and humor. Glad I am part of it.

Welcome aboard captain Ed. I believe you will have fun with the guys and gals involved with this site. Never been fly fishing in the salty waters, but it looks like fun.

Hey steelie junkie, are you giving up on those silver bullets for the other silver bullets?

How many days do I fish: I honestly don't know. I fish year round, whenever I can get out, I go.

Do I keep fish: No, not now. When I first started, I kept put-n-take trout for my grandmother. I kept my first steelhead and tried it(felt that is what I should do since I kept it and I don't eat fish). I have released every steelhead since then; easily in the hundreds.

Species: Trout, Steelhead, Smallmouth (mainly), but I still will fish for bluegills, catfish, largemouth, walleye, sauger.

Don't eat fish.

Barbless hooks, don't play them too long, I wet my hands if I need to touch the fish and I don't use a net. I take that extra minute if need be to help the fish get its bearrings back.

I don't mind people who keep fish, but I do mind people who keep more fish than what they need (show-offs). Hope this helps.

Just wanted to add my happy B-day wishes. Hopefully I'll see you in erie and give you some of my secrets

Welcome to the site, you will enjoy it. I have learned alot and hopefully you will to. I have a few friends in the air force, but they are state side. Welcome again.

Bull is definitely no Buffalo. If I don't have the time to drive up to Buffalo, I will hit Bull. Still not a bad little stream.

I believe you are not trying to start anything, but out of the many, many miles of stocked stream waters, there is a small % that is Delayed Harvest Artificial Lures Only. I do fish with bait in the open waters, but I like to fish these artificial lures only sections as well. Guys do use spinners and small crankbaits. That is fine by my standards, but I like the challenge of not using bait and seeing bait containers left lying around. Just my thoughts.

I joined Trout Unlimited (Arrowhead chapter) which they stock Buffalo Creek. I also joined Tri-County Trout Club which they stock Deer Creek and Bull Creek. I was the president of TCTC, but I had my daughter this year and was a bit too much, so I resigned, but stayed on as a board member. Two nice little clubs.

LBG, where is this petition? I here the group Traditional Anglers is trying to do this. Get bait fishing permitted in the DHALO sections, but after I believe June 15. I am against this and so are two of my fishing clubs (TU and TCTC). So there are some nice ones in Neshanny

I stocked Deer Creek, Bull Creek and will stock Buffalo on Sat.

I just filled up today for a $1.69. Here in Pa. I have to travel a good distance to work everyday; meaning I have to fill up twice a week. I teach so I am looking forward to summer, no driving to work everyday saving some $$$$$

Happy B-day and you better get your butt out there for some fishing.

I give a for the hat.
