HERE IS THIS WEEKS FISHING REPORT FOR EASTERN PA.
"With an increase in insect life and unseasonably warm water temperatures. Streams such as the Little Lehigh, Saucon, and Monocacy are seeing nice hatches of Blue Winged Olives size 18- 20 in the early afternoon. Nymph fishing has also been productive with small pheasant tails size 18, 20, 22 , Sucker Spawn, San Juan Worms. Midge larva and pupa are taking fish under the surface. This week while fishing, I encountered Hendricksons, Quill Gordons, Blue Winged Olives, and a variety of Caddis. A number 10 dry caddis with a caddis emerger or larva is a deadly pattern for the caddis emergence when very little surface activity is present. The surface activity will continue getting better and better in the next two weeks.
Look for caddis hatches as well on other Pocono streams such as the Brodhead and McMichaels. As the flows on the Lehigh River drop, fishing should pick and join the other area streams. Look for fishing to continue to stay productive from here on out as other big hatches are right around the corner. The Jordon Creek in Allentown is being stocked with trout from the Queen City Trout Nursery on Saturday morning, stocking will start behind Home Depot on Mac Carther Road (145)( 7th St), and continue to 4th street. Shad fishing on the Delaware is starting to pick up and this weekend should be good. By next weekend I expect the shad fishing to be a lot more productive. Note we are supposed to get rain Sunday through Wednesday of next week".
