Thanks last two posts are reminder to keep checking the temperature as you move along ...
for what it's worth here are two smaller streams than anyone would usually want to fish... Poconos mega Rhododendron 61 and 62 after 2 p.m. today... air 25 f warmer.
I like to fish small and tiny streams, but I'd probably just head to the river and crush some smallies and swim when I got too hot.
The notion that a stream has cooled significantly just from a chance in gradient (and presumably more important, shade) is interesting to me. I can understand a lot of share and gradient lowering the stream to some degree, but a huge temp drop? Are we sure some kind of spring didn't rise into these Poconos streams and that is what substantially lowered their temps?
