I took three casts and was asked to leave. They just stocked it. LAME :-l

Hmmm...can't fish after stocking, guess they're waiting for opening day? Kinda like these jokers?

My family and I have fished the oaks at perkiomen (We call it perky) for 40+Yrs. I'm 26 and remember fishing there when I was little 7-8 and catching 25-30 smallies per man in a 6-8 hr day. My dad and uncles tell me that 20-25yrs ago it was the best kept secret. They said they rarely saw anyone while fishing there. My uncle has a smallie mounted from there that's atleast 5 maybe 6lbs. There are HUMUNGOUS carp in there. They look like submarines lol.

I went there last yr and didn't catch a thing. I watched 2 guys pulling out 10-15 lb flatheads from the falls. They were using dead sunnies. The guy told me that the. Flatheads really hurt the smallie population. U guys see that too?

Yeah you cant fish the upper part of the east branch till opening day.  You can fish the lower part though because it is out of ATW (ends half mile downstream from the spill).  I walked almost 3 miles checking out spots and how the stream looked after the winter.  Water was high but looked great.  I'm sure i will run into you or someone on here because i'm there all the time!  Love that steam.  

 

BTW I was the one who stocked it haha
