^ You're my hero!!!I dunno. On my computer I keep my pictures organized by stream. There’s about 300 I have pictures stored of. There’s probably some more that were total duds that I didn’t take any pictures on and wrote off. 350-400ish total would be my guess.
I tend to get an interest in an area, explore all of those, then pick a different area. For instance, this past Fall/Winter, I explored the Delaware Water Gap streams. Fished probably a dozen or 15 of them. Day trips, fished one or two a day, one day per week. Most were duds, lots of hemlock damage, but a couple would be worth fishing again. Before that it was the Sullivan/Bradford/Wyoming County area. That took me about two years to work through.
Most of that 350 or 400 total, I’ve only fished once. There’s probably only 40 or 50 that I found good, or interesting enough for some reason, to seek out and fish again. And there’s probably another 50 or so that were good enough to fish again if I was in that area for some reason, and needed a quick stream to fish, but I wouldn’t necessarily specifically make a trip for.
There’s probably only 15 or 20 that I’d call my favorites, and I try to fish fairly regularly…every year, or every couple of years. If I find one or two new ones to add to that list in a year of exploring/fishing, that’s a good year.
My unexplored horizons are ANF, most of the Laurel Highlands, and the Quehanna/Moshannon area. So that’s what I’ll probably be working on for a while. Those are all pretty much out of range for day trips for me right now, which makes it more difficult. But, we’re moving to Harrisburg later this Summer and that will chop an hour each way off those drives, so figuring to get to them more starting in the Fall.
