Penn's report
Tom Littleton wrote:
Time had arrived, last Wednesday, to open Clave Central for the
season. Accompanied by Handyman Mike Shaw, and the Finn(Mike Makela),
and with a couple cameo appearances by Bruce Fisher, we started off
the Penn's trout season. In a 5 day period marked by a range of temps
between 34 and 91 degrees, we saw a tremendous amount of Grannom
Caddis, smaller Black Caddis, Blue Quills, Quill Gordons and
Hendricksons. What we DIDN'T see were rising trout. Most all fish
caught were subsurface, with deep nymphs, streamers and wet flies the
only sources of angling success, and those successes were pretty
limited. At any rate, we all had a blast, including my little dog
Teddy, who needed a weekend in the woods. Trout aplenty await at Penn's.
We foolishly did not try other local
streams(I suspect both Big Fishing and Spring Creeks would have fished
better), but are ready to welcome all to Penns Creek late in May!

Thanks for the report, Tom.
