    Dave- I was out there two weeks ago and saw one, but it looked awful darn rough so I figured it was probably a stockie that fought it’s way out of the Tionesta. Other than that, none! We were hoping to get the “grand slam” last time.

    Ever fished up above the fork? Gets pretty narrow and skinny though.

    Bob, thanks for the great info. I’ll most definitely look into all options you suggested. I’ve got a little jon boat that would be great, but I’m not sure how to get it aboard the plane. We’ll be in touch

    Next time you get to OH, Zach, get a hold of me. Maybe head a little further west and I’ll take you to the V. It’s not as popular as the Grand/Chagrin, but there are very nice fish and few people.

    Well, i’ll take the Xterra and strap the boat on the roof. Not a bad idea…

    Pat, technically the following weekend would be your birthday weekend…come along with us.

    Probably can’t bring a boat, and I’ll only be there for 2 days. I may be able to drive east but looks like i’ll be fishing the Niagara. Why not.

    The Dutchman’s breeches there is actually wild bleeding heart. Same family, easily confused! The breeches have separate “legs” like an upsidedown pair of trousers. Both of which are awesome spring wildlflowers. Wishing ours was in bloom up here.

    Glad to see I’m not the only green weenie devotee. It’s a hot fly, I’m tellin’ ya. Great pics, hope spring isn’t far up here!

    Aaron,
     Now they are calling for 6-8 inches of snow to fall Friday night.  This is getting old.
    Eric

    That’s about the same for here as well. Oh well. What’s another week…though I am getting severe stream separation anxiety i think.

    Turns out I’m working Friday now. Not sure of sunday, good luck wherever you get out to. Most Ohio tribs are out of the question. Not sure of PA’s, but Conneaut was the only one showing signs of promise and it’s up a little with this bout of rain which could mean PA might fish by the weekend, assuming no more rainfall! Keep me posted, i’ll throw the 8wt. in the truck, i’ll be in Canton most of the weekend, but may be able to sneak out sunday. Either way, good luck to you

    Thanks, Neal and Ronnie. Thanks also for the “home studio” tips, quite helpful.

    The craft fur really does hold its shape in the water. Now to see if they entice the fish!

    If you go to Neshannock, give shoot me a message. Maybe I could meet you out there. Haven’t fished it in probably 10 years! Depends on the work schedule, and of course the weather like you said.

    Same here; it switched over to freezing rain about 10:30 pm, then to snow shortly after. All is way high and raging (again). You heading to state college then next weekend or staying close to home?

    Supposedly rain in the forecast here, just what we need! Sandy was a little low too last we were there. May be in good shape if rain holds off in that area. Let me know how you do

    You guys are taking me on walk down memory lane.  Where Pithole dumps into the main river can be thrilling if you time it right – monster bronze backs with a shots at a big river resident brown.  Oh boy…

    We discussed this very thing on our drive down 62 following the allegheny. Might have to make that happen this year

    Is it a pretty big one beginning with an A and ending in Y? Otherwise, i need some hints! How’d your day on the yough go a few weeks ago? sorry we didn’t hook up, wasn’t in PA long enough to do much really.

    It definitely looks fishy. Lots of nice riffles and pools. Seems like a fairly steep gradient too. Also, doesn’t look like it gets a lot of attention. Could be wrong though.

    Mark- Thank you, haven’t had the B&T in some time, not since leaving PA in ’05!

    Eric- Sending a PM. As for Pithole, yeah we were at eagle rock rd. bridge. I had my gazetteer and it looked like the easiest access considering the snow. Checking google earth shows a couple more places I definitely want to get back and check out. Never fished Pithole, and was pleasantly surprised. Beautiful creek
