Rohan Lupin Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I'm looking for anyone interested in just going fishing and enjoying the water. I don't know anyone in the area and I'm looking for a fishing buddy. If anyone knows any fishing groups in the area or are from the area and just want to go fishing please let me know. Thanks and happy fishing!!???? Quote
Megastink Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 My hometown!!!! I don't live there anymore (in the Philly area now), and all my friends are gone. Haha, sorry bud! My parents still live in Dingmans Ferry and I come visit (and fish) most weekends starting in March. Where in Milford do you live? 1 Quote
Turkey sandwich Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Welcome to the forum! I grew up near Wilkes-Barre, but also now reside in Philly. You're in a great place for the outdoors. The north branch Susquehanna isn't too far (I try to get there at least a few weekends a month), and you're right on the Delaware. If you don't own a fly rod, pick one up and head north. The tailwaters of the Delaware down into the main stem are killer trout waters. 2 Quote

Sunrise itself isn't too good, but the smaller lakes are awesome. I'll happily take you out to my favorite private lakes up that way. I also sneak into Gold Key whenever possible and fish the canal. 1 Quote

That sounds awesome. Super excited to for the opportunity to hit the water and continue to learn more about fishing. I definitely have cabin fever right now. I've been in the house just organizing tackle and working on flippin and pitching. Can't wait for the weather to break. 1 hour ago, fishballer06 said: Check out PAFishermen.

Turkey sandwich Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I believe you're also reasonably close to Shahola if you feel like pitching shallow, thick weed mats and frogging. Wallenpaupack isn't far either. Quote

I love top water so had me at frogging. Quote

I've been waiting to put my flipping stick to use. The lakes I've been fishing don't have that type of vegetation. This is just making my cabin fever worse lol. Quote
Dogmatic Posted January 16, 2017 Posted January 16, 2017 Welcome, Perkasie here. If you ever want, I'm 3 minutes from Nockamixon, but fish the "Big D" around Milford a lot, especially during NJ, and PA trout stockings. 1 Quote

When the water thaws we should make it happen. When you say you fish the "Big D" are you talking abt the Delaware River? 1 Quote

When I lived in CO, we used to joke about the "Mighty Platte River"..."A mile wide, but just six inches deep." Compared to it, The Big D is a great resource, we are lucky to have her. Quote
Megastink Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 The Upper Delaware around Dingmans and Milford is a great smallmouth fishery. I plan on doing a float trip in May this year from Milford Beach to Dingmans Bridge. Lots a good smallies to be had in that stretch. 2 Quote

Yeah some guy working in the gun section at Walmart told me to go there. I tried fishing it from the shore with no luck. But I could see the fish busting on the surface all day. It was breaking my heart. 2 Quote

Bigchunk Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 Yea I'm about 5 minutes from the dam. I know some good bank spots, they only good until school lets out though... Quote
Dogmatic Posted February 16, 2017 Posted February 16, 2017 You live along the best smallie stretches of the river all the way down to Easton, and the Lehigh. Those fish don't care that it's cold. Quote
