noodle one Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Went down to the Delaware this morning to do a little fishing with the center pin.I got there a little before 7 am and fished until 10 am. In that time I hooked up on 10 or 11 fish. I landed 4 , the biggest one being 16 ,17 ins. the others were 12 to 14 ins.. My float went down another doz. times that I missed. All were browns. All took bait. I C/R all the fish I catch, so I can go down another day and maybe catch them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erussell Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Go up to the catch and release area in deposit by the highway. I have seen some in there that make 17 inch look like a minnow. Cannonsville res has some real hogs in it to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noodle one Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 erussell, I know the exact area you are talking about. I have fished there many times. I like to float pink worms in the run just below the bridge. I have taking many big fish down through there in years pass. Rainbows and browns. This year I have not picked up one rainbow and the brown fishing is not what it has been in the pass. I don't know if it is because of the high water or the snot grass. I do know that rainbows don't like the water as cold as browns do. I know of a few places above there that always had big fish, but this year there are some ,but not as many as in the pass. I am 67 years old and have fished that river 45 plus years. I use to fish it every night after work for years long before people knew there were big trout in there. As I sit here writing this there a 31 in. 8 lbs. river brown that my son took out of the river about 7 or 8 years ago that is on the wall above my computer. That is the only fish that has been keep in many, many years. All the fish are C/R. My best fish so far this year was a 26 in brown male that I got early in the season. If you are down that way and see someone center pinning , be sure to say Hi. I am down there some place alot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
