Pennsylvania has more trout water per capita than any state has a right to, and the Yellow Breeches is the crown jewel of its limestone spring creek tradition. When sulphurs start emerging on a warm May evening, the creek transforms into a cathedral of rising trout, and this emerger sits in the film like a sermon they cannot refuse. The trailing shuck says 'I am transitioning between life stages' in a way that trout find absolutely irresistible. Penns Creek runs the same hatch a week later and twice as heavy, which gives you an excuse to fish two of the finest trout streams in the East in consecutive weekends. Your employer may not understand. The trout will.
