Northeastern Pennsylvania, whose waters are steeped in American angling history, boasts some of the best fly fishing for trout in the world.
Among its prime trout waters is the Lackawanna River, which was
a heavily polluted urban waterway for many decades during the region's coal-mining heyday. Today, thanks to the efforts of local conservationists and fly fishermen, a five-mile stretch of the Lackawanna is a designated Trophy Trout fishery teeming with wild brown trout.
The region is also home to the Upper Delaware River, a pristine tailwater fishery treasured by anglers worldwide for its gorgeous
surroundings and large wild brown and rainbow trout.
Northeastern Pennsylvania also is home to the fabled Brodhead Creek, which was home to Teddy Roosevelt's Henryville Fly Fishers. A number of other fly fishing clubs, including the prestigious Blooming Grove Club,
have made their homes on the region's trout streams.
Dozens of well-known streams, including The Tunkhannock Creek, The Dyberry Creek and Bowman's Creek, provide first-class public angling for seasoned pros and beginners alike. For anglers looking for other kinds of action, the area's lakes and rivers, including the Susquehanna, provide excellent fly fishing for bass, carp and other game fish.
