Re: Pequanick River
I made it to the pequanick on Monday. The signs were not put up by the state. They were color flyers in plastic bags basically giving info that the state no longer puts browns in the pequanick. It explains how browns have adapted and sucessfully spawn in this river. it is a suggestion of c & r based on this reason.
The sign was put up up by some trout orginazation.
I have caught plenty of 6-7 inch obvious wild browns in that river and my friend had one that day. Beautiful little guys.
A few years ago I caught a 18 inch brown in there with the start of a kype jaw. Back in he went.
The signs were observed in the butler area by an auto body shop.
We did well covering over 15 miles of river moving every 20-30 Min. To different spots catching over 20 fish which all but 4 were returned.
Aside from the fish bitting I cane home to find a brown tic bitting me as well just along my belt line. luckily I was able to remove without incident as it was not in yet.
Exploring the river climbing thru brush has its consequences.
