Tailrace Fly-Fishing

[Red Childress]

If any of you are just getting started in dry fly fishing, haul your butt to the Kinzua tailwaters and pound on the freshly stocked browns and bows that are rising along the banks all day long.

Hate to ask, but are they all fingerlings? Do you think the muskies are in for a good free meal?

They are definitely freshly stocked at a whopping 6-8 inches long and they are everywhere. That section of water is designated as a "trophy" trout waterway with 2 per day and 14 inches in length.

The muskies and big walleye I have seen in that area are nice and plump.
