I took a hint from Warren's post, went to Google, and typed in "Donny
Beaver Lawsuit."

It brought me several web sites. You can check them out.

You feel his pain..... bseg

No, seriously, the issue of "navigability" is at the core of the fight
to maintain (or in many cases, have recognized) the public's right to
access Oregon rivers, so I'd be most interested in the Little J outcome.

Hey, are either of you seeing any mention of a group called Mountain
States Legal Foundation based out of Colorado? This article may be of
interest even if you haven't.

There is another article entitled "Navigable Rivers and Public Access"
that may be of interest as well.

I read a few articles doing the search you suggested. It seems that
this case has been going on for quite some time (since 2000 or 2001).
Does it look like there is going to be a decision made any time soon?
The answer to my question very well could be in one of the sites the
search turned up but I didn't think sites like holytitclamps.com would
have any information even though "lawsuit," "Beaver" and "Donny" were
all in the brief description. ;-) And I am not making that up either.

Yes, it has.

Don't know, Warren. I hope so.

less than 4 months til the next penns gathering, and it can't arrive
soon enough for me. in an optimistic grasp, i hold zimbo's emergence as
the feel of positive prophecy for the up-coming fishing year.

watched an espn show this morning. dave mullen (?) was guiding some tv
fisherman on spruce creek and penns. spruce creek was tiny in some of
the places shown...but huge fish. the john was catching big fish right
at his feet using a nymph in very shallow, clear water. how far away
from penns is spruce creek, and is it worth a trip? on penns, it looked
like they were fishing the area around ingleby...dry fly, and an
enormous brown caught.

boyz...this is the year the sun is gonna shine and we're going to send a
swede (and a carolina rube) home with fishy tales to tell.

Jeff,
I watched that episode. It is not representative of fly fishing in
central PA, as you well know. Fishing the central PA limestoners is
like pursuing a beautiful, classy, vivacious lady with bright eyes and
white teeth... you gotta use all that you got and you may still not
score. The ESPN showed this area as an old worn-out hooker laying on
a moth-eaten old sofa, crack pipe in hand, eyes blood shot and rotten
teeth... the only thing keeping you from scoring is a fist-full of
currency. I don't appreciate the Spring Ridge Club's attempts at
privitizing our trout streams.

How many rainbows have you caught on Penns Creek, BFC, or Spring
Creek? Rainbow trout don't do very well on our limestoners, and they
definitely don't grow to that size in a natural setting. The slam
hogs on Spruce are stocked, they caught a big bow on Spring Creek and
that is a wild brown trout fishery, and another big bow on Penns.
Nope that was not Ingleby, that was the pool below Penns Cave
(pay-to-fish).

Spruce Creek is about 60 miles from Coburn. There is about 1/2 mile
of public access, but it runs into the Little Juniata River. There
are many times that Penns is blown-out and the Little J is perfect,
and vice-versa. So driving down that way may not be out of the
question. The Spring Ridge club boasts a 15 pound slam hog rainbow in
the disputed stretch of the Little J. Bring a bag of fish pellets and
some floating pellet imitations with you.

I'll go, but we have to stop for some more of those artery clogging french
