Central PA "After the Green Drake" Trip June 8th, 9th, 10th 2012

Enjoy some of Central PA streams with Sky Blue Outfitters. Why do I call it "After the Green
Drake Hatch"? Because there will be less fishermen and there are still some real nice hatches of
Sulphurs, Caddis and other mayflies. We plan on fishing Big Fishing Creek and either Bald Eagle,
Spring or Penns Creek.

This package includes lodging on Big Fishing Creek and gourmet dinner each day. You will learn
nymphing and dry fly fishing techniques along with casting instructions, how to read the water,
fly selection and leader design. This would be a great trip if you are just learning or
you want to learn more about fly fishing in the central Pennsylvania area.
