- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ส.ค. 2024
- In the heart of Central Pennsylvania (centrally located within Centre County no less), Bellefonte has a little bit for everyone. For the trout fishing enthusiasts, you have Spring Creek - one of Pennsylvania’s premiere wild brown trout fisheries - as well as other limestone spring influneced and freestone streams surrounded by hundreds of thousands of acres of State Forest, Game, and Park Lands. If your into American history, Bellefont boasts ties to our industrial past with iron works and manufacturing as well as resource extraction. If you appreciate architecture, treat yourself to downtown Victorian Bellefonte’s Historic District. It’s like stepping back in time to the late 19th century - with incredibly well preserved buildings. After a long day fly fishing, do yourself a favor by supporting some local restaurants and shops, you’ll be glad you did. Join me today on our 2nd TROUT TOWN in Bellefonte PA.

First comment!!!! This is what we came here for baby trout towns is going to the top
My bro, that's what I'm talking about!
I like fishing, i like architecture, i like history. Now i have to binge watch all three years of your content. Subscribed.
It’s a great channel he fishes some really cool waters. Be warned, the fish handling in some of his earlier videos is atrocious but other than that one of my favorite fishing TH-camrs
Thank you both, appreciate the support! And yes, the early vids are super cringe and poor fishing handling but I am trying to be better every day.
Awesome, thank you!
Wow...I'm impressed! You have hit here on something. Why not include history, local eateries, and nostalgia into your productions? When I would travel to any great fishing destination, some of my most precious memories are these...! You my friend are becoming a great producer. Keep it up! Next stop? Your own syndicated show!
Absolutely love that place!! I had a blast when I fished spring creek.
Absolutely fell in love with spring creek and the Bellefonte area after I just finished up my freshman year at penn state. It was my first time diving into fly fishing and euro nymphing, definitely can’t wait to be back up and record more outings!
Destination fishing is all about the overall experience!
Now that you have established yourself as a good producer ( I love your enthusiasm...."Got em...Got em!" And your funny humor)...now you need some sponsorship. So research the area that you will fish. Like example...your Lick Run Video. Whats nearby? Lock Haven! Penns Creek ...State College! Find eateries and other landmarks in that area. Give them TH-cam advertising...and get them to give money to promote your videos. I'm always looking to watch your latest addition. You have this special way. Trout fisherman and entertainer. You're young. Please...go for it!
Use that last video to sell my idea. Friend you are going places with this!
Excellent video, btw. Well rounded and good quality production. Carlisle will put you on several famous streams. Letort, Big Spring, Yellow Breeches, Falling spring all within driving distance.
I have about half of my Carlisle episode already completed - I'm doing Letort and Big Springs, which are both pretty tough fisheries. Hopefully it comes out okay. Thanks!
Awesome video. Very nice place
Hey Chief. Super job. Really interesting and real, which is rare. Love adding the history!
I grew up in Valley Forge, nice trout and history too.
Left PA 40 years ago to Charleston SC. If you ever want to throw a fly at a tailing redfish I can pole you. Nice history too. Been watching for a couple years.
Keep up the great work.
Cheers mate. Gregg
Thanks man appreciate it! Went to Charleston once a few years back and loved it.
Hilton n.c. best stream ever it also goes n to Va
Going to state college to fish all week this week. Love central pa
Good luck! Between Spring, Penns, Little J, Bald Eagle, Big Fishing, and all of the freestoners nearby on public lands, you should have a great time. Weather looks good too.
Fished bald eagle for the first time and loved it. Cannot believe I never fished that before
did you mention the name of the second stream? I missed it.
I’ve (as of late) refrained from naming smaller and lesser known streams. All I can say is that it was in Black Moshannon State Park. good luck!
Nice work!
Thank you sir!
I thought Spring Creek was polluted such that it only held Diptera gnats....Wild trout have sharp edged fins...hatchery raised trout ghave rounded fins due to crowding.
I'm pretty sure Spring Creek was polluted historically but has since rebounded considerably.
Nice!
You should write a book and a just let everyone know the best fishing spots! At least you finally have net I guess
It's funny you mention that. If I continue with 'Trout Towns' long enough, I was thinking about writing a book (at least for Pennsylvania). Thanks for the comment!
Spring creek always go small , what ever size you think to use go smaller 16 , 18 pressured very hard
Good to know, thanks for the tip!
Hey definitely got to go to Crane Missouri
There are some other sections on spring creek, and some other spots around if you do some searching
Other trout town recommendations, Driftwood, Ohiopyle, Slate Run, Weikert, Spruce Creek or Alexandria, and somewhere on the upper Delaware.
Heading up to Hancock NY (Upper Delaware) today as a matter of fact. Alot of the places you mentioned are on my list. Thanks for the comment!
Focus more on restaurants maybe - ppl like to go on Day trips and stop for a bite to eat! just a suggestion . nice work
It's interesting you mention that. My favorite two TV's shows are River Monsters (fishing) and Diners, Drive In's and Dives. So someday I'd love to incorporate food/drink places to go to after fishing locally. Just need to figure out the logistics of legally filming inside the restaurant with their buy-in. Good idea and thanks!
No bad words 😅
Seem to be afraid of holding a Rainbow. Noticed that in your other videos as well. Did one bite you in the past?
It's less about Rainbows specifically and more about stocked trout generally. Between the stunted fins and other abnormalities, I'm not a huge fan of holding stockers.

I thought State College was the “home of the Nittany Lions”
Wait, I live in Bellefonte.
