Hello all,
I've browsed these forums a lot and appreciate all of the information that is already here, but honestly, it's a bit overwhelming! My boyfriend and I are moving from New Mexico to Pittsburgh on August 1. Where we're from, there isn't much water, so it's easy to sort through fishing locations and pick where to go. It seems there are so many options for fly fishing in PA that I'm having trouble planning a trip and would really appreciate some individual advice.
We will have two weeks to camp and fish after we get settled in Pittsburgh before we start work/school. This is going to be our only vacation so far this year, and probably our last vacation for a while, so we want to plan a really good trip. We want to tour around and get a good feel for what will be around us for shorter trips during the year, but we might consider driving fairly far if there's an amazing spot, but probably don't want to drive more than 4 hours in one day, and don't want to move around too much within the two weeks.
We enjoy fly fishing in rivers/streams, but we also have float tubes so small lakes are cool too. We like car camping, but would prefer not to be crowded into a campground with a ton of other people if possible. Also, we like to drink, and I was reading some of the parks don't allow this (though I think we can be sneaky if needed).
So... any suggestions are much appreciated, thank you!
