Dear NOObmaster,lackawaxen lot of private property. i need to get some waders for late season fishing. for now wet wading will do. rivers are fast moving and water is high due to wallenpaupack water getting dumped. i will give it a few days. i can practice in shohola reservoir in the interim.
If you practice in Shohola and the fish are biting you won't want to go anywhere else!
There are a lot of nice bluegills, perch, and bass in that Lake. It's been years since I fished it, but a friend of mine sent me a video of her granddaughter catching 8 and 9-inch bluegills one right after the other. If you put on a size 8 panfish popper and tie 24 inches of tippet to the bend of the hook with a size 12 Bead Head Prince nymph and get a double, you will be very impressed.
A boat, canoe, kayak or float tube will help you reach fish, but I've caught plenty of nice fish by fishing from the bank.
Just have fun!
Regards,
Tim Murphy 🙂
