I've noticed that several streams in the Lock Haven area have signs saying the stream is part of the Lock Haven water supply and that camping, fishing, pets, fires, etc. are prohibited. McElhattan Creek and Chatham Run are a couple examples, but I'm sure there are others. While hiking on the paths along these streams I noticed that lots of people had pets along the stream. Are these signs old and outdated, or is it just that nobody abides by the rules on the sign? If pets are allowed, does that mean fishing is allowed on these streams that are part of the water supply? The water quality must be pretty good on these streams if it's the drinking water for the town, so I'm guessing the fishing would be pretty good too!
The sign at McElhattan Creek specifically says that fishing is prohibited in the lake and all receiving streams. What is a receiving stream? Does that mean I can fish the section above the lake, below it, neither, or both?
Thanks for your help!
