Hello all,
I am originally from upstate New York. My whole life I grew up fishing small streams for stocked browns and wild brookies, with a 14 inch fish being a really nice one. While I am getting my Masters degree from Penn State I am doing my best to take advantage of the awesome trout fishing that central PA has to offer. I set a goal of 20 inches when I first started fishing here a year and a half ago. I have been fishing my butt of at Penns, especially at night and I'm having a blast. I have broken my personal best several times over and have caught plenty of fish in the 17 to 19 inch range and even one at 19 3/4.
So my question to you all is... how difficult is it to catch a true 20 inch wild brown in central PA, and is Penns the place to do it?
