Trout stocking changes reach northwestern Pa. waters

The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission recently announced changes to its adult trout stocking programs for 2013, including three in northwestern Pennsylvania waters:

1. Buhl Lake, in Mercer County, near Sharon, has been added to the stocking list. The 7-acre lake will be stocked with rainbow trout during the preseason and inseason periods.

2. A section of Caldwell Creek, in Warren County, will no longer receive adult trout. Finglering trout will be stocked during the fall from 2012 to 2014 in the Catch and Release Fly-Fishing Only section that runs 1.4 miles from Selkirk Bridge downstream to Stony Hollow Run, half a mile upstream of Dotyville Bridge.

3. Little Sandy Creek, in Venango County, also will see only finglering stocked in a Catch and Release Fly Fishing Only section of stream. The stretch is 1.3 miles, from the old bridge at Polk Center Pump House downstream to the Route 3024 bridge on Savannah Road.
