I took off on Friday so hit Ridley to do some fly fishing. I was surprised to so many people fishing at 11:00am. I nymph fished under an indicator for the fisrt hour with out a bite. Then I realized it was not a natural trout stream in the Poconos and that these fish were transplanted from a hatchery on Tuesday. They don't know what a stone fly or any other aquatic insect looks like. So I put on a streamer and got nailed on the first cast, and on the second, and on the third. I had a constant pick for the next hour and a half. The Commision must have dumped a couple of buckets in that one hole and they were stacked. You would not believe how many fish I landed, but it was in the double didgets. Two were browns the rest were rainbows and nothing was over 12".

Not to mention you need to look like you just stepped out of an Orvis catalog to fit in. Either way I doubt I would be able to resist the temptation day after day, may try to get back down there this spring just for old times sake.
