The good news is that long drives to fish (3.5-4.5 hours) have been the norm for me since I started this game, so that much time on a road to PA will feel like nothing much has changed.I think you might find the driving you're looking at to get to trout/grouse in PA is gonna be tougher. The distances are greater. I'm not familiar with the drive to from Dayton to P-burgh but I'd guess probably at least 4-5 hours(?). Add to that a couple more hours to get into the better areas of PA and you're essentially looking at probably 6-8 hours on the road. Also, the roads in western PA just don't fly by like driving in the West where landscape can fly by in leaps and bounds - it can be a tough slog during the autumn and winter months for grouse in PA(Oct - Jan).
With that said, it's certainly doable for a weekend. I'd look into finding some dog friendly hotels or campsites/cabins in the areas that Pcray has described. Or add a couple hours and you can get up into north central PA - counties like Lycoming, Potter, Centre, Clinton etc. These areas are trout and grouse paradise.
Anyway, we look forward to your movement back East in the spring.
