Rainbow Trout
While not as prevalent as brown trout, rainbow trout fishing can be found near Yorkana, PA, in stocked streams and select tributaries of the Susquehanna River watershed. The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission regularly stocks these waters, providing anglers with opportunities to catch rainbows, especially in the spring and fall. Check the PFBC stocking schedules online to find the most recently stocked locations. Fishing is typically best shortly after stocking, but these fish can hold over in cooler, deeper pools. A key tip is to use small spinners, spoons, or live bait like worms or mealworms. Look for areas with riffles and runs, as these provide oxygenated water that rainbows prefer. Be aware of any special regulations on specific streams, such as catch-and-release or gear restrictions. While the rainbows in this area are primarily stocked fish, they can still provide a fun and rewarding fishing experience.
