It was Pine Creek in northern PA. Not sure if it's stocked. Probably is.

Speaking of which, anyone know of fisherys that will ship fingerlings in small numbers? I'm looking to put my 125 back in action and I'm torn between doing another clown knife or going north american this time

yeah, it's a fly reel. It's the only way I can fish in TN. I got bored with bait casting fairly quickly up here. I picked up fly fishing and really enjoyed it. I try to hike in and fish little creeks in the Smokies. It's gorgeous up in the little waters I fish. I don't really fish the big waters very often.

I can't tie my own flies, my hands shake too much for that, I rather just buy em.

I used to fish in Lake Delta near Rome, NY - used to snag at least one Great Northern Trout every season. Lemme tell ya, they get PISSED when you hook 'em
