09-02-10:  Hot dry weather is still locked over our area. Pine is warm, but not leathal at this time. Trout are still at the mouths of the runs. Lots of fish have moved up both Slate and Cedar.  No major storm fronts predicted for our area at this time to improve fishing conditions. 

       Remember to help Pine Creek and join the Slate Run Tackle Brown Trout Club. We need your help! $10 or $20 will get you your Yellow or Gold button! The high quality Brown Trout that we stock cost just under $15.00 a piece. When you see one, you will understand. The Delayed Harvest Area received just under 350 of these magnificent fish this year.

This time of year as the trout start feeding in the early morning and very late evening into well after dark, you need to rely more on spinners. The spinner falls this time of year are usually concentrated and very strong. Making a great food source for the trout.

Straub Brewery of St. Marys, Pa. made a very substantial donation to the Slate Run Tackle  Brown Trout Club this year. The donation made it possible to increase our Brown Trout from two to three truck loads this year.  These 350 large wonderful fish will offer a great experience for trout fishermen in the Delayed Harvest Area of Pine Creek. Since it is a "catch and release" area these fish will offer many repeat opportunities to trout anglers.

Straub Brewery is a family owned business that produces a traditional handcrafted beer in the "Pa. Wilds" of North Central Pennsylvania.  Peter Straub started the brewery in the Allegheny Mountain town of St. Marys in 1872. The family attitude of perfection in their brewery is reflected in the support of projects like the Slate Run Tackle Brown Trout Club. We appreciate their support, you can enjoy their products at Hotel Manor. ( My favorite is Peter Straub Special Dark )

          Lord Nelson's Gallery, located in historic downtown Gettysburg, Pa, has been a long time supporter of the Slate Run Tackle Brown Trout Club.  They have donated many high quality limited edition prints over the years to be raffled off and the proceeds go to buying the Brown Trout that are stocked in the Delayed Harvest Area on Pine Creek.  Any one who has caught one of these spectacular trout can attest to their quality. Just seeing these fine trout feed on the surface is a thrill, and can cause a lot of excitement even among the most experienced anglers.

        Their fine art and prints can be seen on WWW.lordnelsons.com or call them on 800-664-9797.  The club raffle runs from June through November.  The funds go to the cost of trout for the project. Tickets are available at our store.
