noodle one Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I made a couple trips down to the Delaware river this weekend to do some center pinning for trout. Saturday I fished the border water (NY, PA) above Hancock and had a good day with browns and rainbow. Today I fished the west branch Delaware and on my very first float I hooked and landed a nice 22in.male brown. It was another hour before I started to get any more fish. I fished for another three hours and ended up with six more browns. (12 to 16 in.) I had many more hits, but could not set the hook. I live only an half hour away ,so I am thinking about another trip in the middle of the week. I would fish every day, but I also like to play golf. (decisions, decisions) and they told me that life would get easier when I retired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNYBuckHunter Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Sounds like you had a bunch of fun. I wish I had time to get out fishing, havent even gotten any of my poles out yet this year let alone wet a line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTG3k Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 I fished East Branch of the Delaware, in Hancock last weekend. Got a grand total of 0 fish, lol. But it was totally worth it when i got to watch two eagles swoop down and grab fish. Dont get to see that everyday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Sounds like you had a great day, Noodle... That 22" male brownie must have been gorgeous.. Whatcha fishing on that centerpin...bait..? Nymphs..??.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noodle one Posted July 1, 2011 Author Share Posted July 1, 2011 Pygmy, I got the 22" iner on bait ,as I do most of the bigger fish I catch. This year has been a slow year fishing the Delaware. My best trout so far has been a 26" in. male I caught earlier this year. this year I had been catching one over 20" in. every 3 or 4 trips. In years pass I would catch 1 or 2 on every trip down. I am luckly to live only a half an hour away from the river. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
