I used to help stock Slate Run and Cedar Run - two tributaries of Pine Creek In NC Pa. - that were added to the "no-stock" list of blue ribbon wild native trout fisheries. After the studies initiated by Penn State, Slate Run and Cedar Run were found to have less trout per surface hectare of water when they were stocked - vs. more and larger trout per surface hectare of water when NOT stocked, and left to nature's designs of native, stream-bred trout. Both streams are mountain freestone streams, as is Pine Creek.
Spruce Creek, Fishing Creek, Yellow Breeches, Letort Springs Run, Spring Creek, Penn's Creek, Bald Eagle Creek - and there are a few small others that VERY FEW know about!!! My oldest son fishes Penn's during the Green Drake hatch each year and he said the flies are so thick that they land all over your body and you hit them when you try to cast. Literally clouds of mayflies to the point they look like fog. He and a couple fishing buddies fish at night and he said they can feel them crawling on them while they hear trout sipping them off the surface!! Size 8 & 10 imitations. Stream-bred helicopters!!! They're HUGE in real life.
