Thread: Little Lehigh

  1. #1

    Little Lehigh

    Great night on Little Lehigh, Vladi worm plus Hot spot Hares Ear combined with short line nymphing equals lots of Trout. It never gets old. Bows, Brookies and Browns. Gotta love it. The floods didn't hurt this stream. Water temp 61 and a little off color.

    Do you think the hatchery spilled out?? That happened one year, I think after Floyd and it was nuts!

    Dave at the fly shop claims 500 trout were lost by the hatchery and are in the creek.

    I was not aware that the LL fly shop reopened.
    Is that the fly shop you mean, or is there another one?
    In the past, if it is in the same location, it was extremely vulnerable to floods.

    Any way, is that loss of trout from the hatchery what we could refer to as "natural stocking"

    I did notice the other day that the fly shop along the LL did re-open under new ownership and is now the Heritage Fly Shop. Glad to see it!

    Error on amount of fish lost from hatchery should be 4000 trout, not 500, my old eyes don't read fine print as good as they used to. Mother nature stocking, courtesy of Irene. Fly shop is in the same location new owner and name. When word gets out it'll be like opening day.

    That didn't last long ! Ha .Glad I got it in last night. I was hoping the 500 mark would stay. Big difference between 500 and 4,000.

    Flyweaver, Don't take that personal. I kept looking at the thread to see if it was gonna get out. Dave put it on his Facebook page yesterday so it already hit the internet. Last night wasn't crowded at all maybe a half dozen guys. My buddy and I caught a ton, even a palamino. You know the honey hole will be jammed. Lots of fish for everyone.

    Troutnut, I figured it would be better to put it on here rather than a site like Paflyfish which seems to be dominated by small minded people who can't wait for the stocking truck. The guys on this board seeem to be of a much higher ethical standard.
