if I was planning on going out this Thursday and these were the streams I was considering which one would you guys recommend for someone who isn't a beginner but still has lots to learn?
Saucon
French
Ridley
thanks
Why not just flip a coin and go check out that stream and have fun?
If you're looking for more detailed info about particular streams, I'd support getting Landis' book (as mentioned further up this thread). Also, the "Where to Fly Fish" link in the upper right side of this page is helpful and finally the PFBC website which lists stocking dates and which streams are Class A wild trout streams. You may also care to scroll through our Stream Reports and Fly Fishing Locations forums as there is a lot of info there as well.
If you're somewhat new to fly fishing I'd personally recommend you stick to stocked streams this time of year. French and Ridley would be good choices (or Wissahickon). There might be more fishermen there, but fish will be easier to catch. By summertime, you will want to drive further as these streams likely will not have trout after mid July, sometimes earlier depending on weather.
