Brown Trout
Emporium, Pennsylvania, offers anglers a chance to pursue brown trout in a classic Pennsylvania setting. The Driftwood Branch of the Sinnemahoning Creek and its feeder streams hold wild and hold-over brown trout. Spring and fall are your best bets. Spring offers prolific hatches, while fall sees the browns spawning. Access the Driftwood Branch via Route 120, but be aware that many of the best tributaries require some hiking. Consider using dry flies like Adams or Elk Hair Caddis during hatches, and nymphs like Pheasant Tails or Hare's Ears when subsurface feeding is more prevalent. Local browns can be wary, so stealth is key. Focus on runs and pools with good structure, like fallen logs and undercut banks. These fish are often smaller but scrappy and can provide a rewarding challenge.
