This week found Cooper and me out and about testing the famous waters around the South Fork area and we were not disappointed in our results. Fish came easily to the bank at every spot we tried and it is very encouraging for summer to be a bountiful time for all.

With Beaver Reservoir drained for work on the dam, Big Meadows is going to take a lot of pressure this summer. For now however, the fishing remains excellent from the shore on the prepared baits like Power Bait or other brands.  My favorite is the little rubber like balls now sold in those same flavors as they stay on the hook so well and it’s easy to catch 4 fish without having to rebait.
