I consider the Manatawny Creek (the Manny) my home
creek, not because I live in it's headwater and fish it
more then any other creek, because it is the best creek
in southeastern PA. Don't take my word for it, there
was a
study done in 2006 and it was highest rated
stream in the sampling. Higher then the Tulpehocken,
French, Hay, Perkioman, Valley and others.

It also has the best Sulphur hatch in the area along
with Hendricksons, Caddis and Tricos. Having a population
of wild brown trout and the state stocks thousands of
adult trout, gives your miles of creek to fish in the
beautiful Oley Valley. Come discover this under "fly"
fished stream.
