Fathers Day Fishing Adventure 6/20

[NorthJerzyG]

Been meaning to hit up some not so local spots lately and figured a nice overcast fathers day weekend would be a good time. Scooped up Pops and headed to Wal-Mart to get a non resident license.....
Good god..... ;)

After that, we finally made it out to some brand new water. Hiked it out a little and started fishin. FIRST cast I had a nice fish on... And then off...... :mad:

Ended up being a good day for me, not so much for dad, lol. I ended up with 5 landed and 3 lost to his 0. :confused: Unfortunately, heard about some nice browns but, all bows. Not complaining though, they were all nice and thick! Got there kinda late and rushed it so I can't complain, or wait to go back and pick it apart thoroughly........

Great pics and a great little adventure for Father's Day weekend. Trying new waters is AWESOME! Glad you and Pop's got out there. Some really nice water right over the border in PA. you can walk for miles and miles on some of those streams. Good stuff "G"!!!:D

Nice trout adventure!

I love Pa. Lakes are just as crowded on the weekends as ours but weekday trips u can basically fish all day and never see another boat. Its streams are not crowded since there are so many to choose from. Avoid stocked or special reg waters and you'll fish alone every time. Streams and fishing aren't necessarily better just more options.

Thanks all! I'll def be doing some more exploring come fall........

Also, anyone know what type of turtle this is? Almost stepped on the bastard and then picked em up like he's been my pet for years, lol. Definitely not a painter or a snapper is all I know......

Looks like a Wood Turtle. Did it have orange and black skin?

[NorthJerzyG]

Yeah, red/Orange and black, nothing on the head. I would have thought some kind of box turtle but I grabbed him out of the water.........
