    I have not heard this, but I can tell you I was out friday when the water was gin clear and saw tons of carp, suckers, catfish, smallies and unfortunately only 1 musky.

    Unless it happened after friday or downstream of Cedar Creek, I would say it's false. Let's hope so.

    Come to think of it I did see one small sucker floating, but I didn't think much of it because I saw so many active, healthy suckers.

    My dad has been chasing bass over the weekend in the Emelton area and didn't mention anything about it. He lives close to there, I'm sure he would of mentioned it.

    Sorry........I missed it wasn't on the Allegheny...idiot.

    people i know that floated the river sunday said there was dead fish from dawson pa to layton. it is unfortunately true. im just trying to find out more info. hope it doesnt turn out like dunkard creek. it might be the new sewage plant in dawson mixing the chemicals too strong. lets hope its something minor.
