Looks Like a Good Weekend



According to Steve at Slate Run Tackle, the Tan Cuddis, Blue Quill and Quill Gordon will all be hatching this weekend. The creek is running good and the weather will be perfect 50-60's and sunny. It seems like a lot of people are reporting catching some fish today and tomorrow should be even nicer.

A Slate Run Easter

Well, what can you say about Easter this year in Slate Run.....COLD! Deb Finkbinder,Whitney Bower, and Jessie Hoffman all get to work today at the Slate Run General Store and listen to everyone complain about the weather. Deb had a great frozen flower poem, which I can't remember, but you get the idea about the general mood.

Johnny Soltzfus came in to buy a can of pineapple for some pineapple pudding recipe he wanted to make that sounded like a diabetics coma waiting to happen. I guess sugar is a cure for the cold weather blues.
I looked high and low for the Easter Bunny today and was very disappointed until I returned home and found him sitting upon a plate.

Who could guess the Easter Bunny could take the shape of a pancake. This of course was an unfortunate shape for him to take since I devoured him in short order. Hope all of your Easter Bunnies taste good.

Mountain Girl, Paula, saying yum, yum!

Weekend Fishing Report

According to Tom Finkbinder at the Slate Run General Store, the water levels are good for fishing in Pine Creek with temperature a little on the cooler side. Delayed harvest area in Pine Creek near Slate run open and No kill fly-fishing up the smaller branches of Slate Run and Cedar Run. Looks like the air temperature highs for the weekend will be close to freezing...so dress warm. Only 9 more days until Fly fishing season opens on April 14th.
