Not to belittle Centre County, PA, but the Rangeley area of Maine
offers far better fishing without the hassle of weather conditions.


that is, if you don't mind fishing in snow and freezing conditions for 6
months out of the year, and don't mind
blackflies all that much when it's warmer.

There are any number of rivers/streams in that area and nearby NH that
offer some of the best fishing on the east coast as to size, quantity,
and quality, and they are all wild fish - no stockers.


that much IS very true. Beautiful country it is, to boot.
As for the rain in PA business, while Penn's and to some
extent, the Little Junianta DO blow out after heavy rains,
it takes a lot to muddy up Big Fishing Creek or the other
small streams in the area. As for native fish, most of the
fish in the Centre County area are streambred browns or
brookies. Some streams have stocking, but the good ones are self-supporting.
