As the sun rises on the last day of April i look outside and see snow on the ground and a forecast for temps in the high 40's and low 50's for the day and coming week.  So goes the winter of 2014 and hopefully this is the last we see of it.  Steelhead season is off to a slow start as a result of the long winter  but don't let that get you down, there is good news.  We have very high expectations for a very good spring steelhead season that should last well into May so there is plenty of good fishing to look forward to.  Fresh fish have started to enter the rivers and they should start in big numbers literally any day.  The PA trout opener is on the 12th of April which is always a great event and bass, walleye, pike, musky and more await anglers preparing for ice out.  Check below for what has been going on around the shop and if you have time stop in for a great early season trout seminar Saturday the 5th.  Hope everyone has a great spring and remember to support your local fly shop.  Thanks from Dan and Pete.
