| Highlight: |
Attention all anglers: If you witness people fishing illegally, with bait or taking fish on the Tully... the best action to take is to contact the Southeast Regional Law Enforcement phone number at 717-626-0228. That office is generally open only 8:00AM to 4:00PM Mon-Fri. The more they hear about this activity, the more they will patrol our waterways! Its up to YOU to make the difference!
TCO is now offering float trips for Smallmouth Bass on the Schuylkill. It is a great change of pace from 8x tippet and sz 26 flies. Contact TCO @ 610-678-1899 for more information
