  I'm

  out
• 0:25
  of
• 0:25
  here
• 0:25
  on
• 0:26
  Saturday,
• 0:26
  so
• 0:27
  looking
• 0:27
  forward
• 0:27
  to
• 0:27
  getting
• 0:28
  out
• 0:28
  of
• 0:28
  this
• 0:29
  dreary
• 0:29
  Pennsylvania
• 0:30
  weather
• 0:30
  and
• 0:30
  into
• 0:31
  some
• 0:31
  and
• 0:32
  some
• 0:33
  delicious
• 0:33
  pina
• 0:34
  coladas
• 0:34
  next
• 0:34
  week
• 0:35
  for
• 0:35
  me.
• 0:35
  Well,
• 0:35
  there
• 0:36
  you
• 0:36
  go.
• 0:36
  And
• 0:36
  of
• 0:36
  course,
• 0:36
  you
• 0:37
  know,
• 0:37
  when
• 0:37
  you
• 0:37
  come
• 0:37
  back,
• 0:37
  your
• 0:37
  weather
• 0:38
  is
• 0:38
  kind
• 0:38
  of
• 0:38
  crappy
• 0:38
  now,
• 0:39
  but
• 0:39
  my
• 0:39
  understanding
• 0:39
  is
• 0:39
  your
• 0:40
  weather's
• 0:40
  going
• 0:40
  to
• 0:40
  get
• 0:40
  better
• 0:40
  in
• 0:40
  about
• 0:41
  a
• 0:41
  week
• 0:41
  to
• 0:41
  10
• 0:41
  days,
• 0:41
  right?
• 0:43
  Yeah,
• 0:43
  for
• 0:43
  sure.
• 0:43
  We've
• 0:44
  had
• 0:44
  a
• 0:44
  bunch
• 0:44
  of
• 0:44
  rain
• 0:45
  in
• 0:45
  the
• 0:45
  past
• 0:45
  couple
• 0:45
  of
• 0:45
  days
• 0:45
  here.
• 0:46
  So
• 0:46
  as
• 0:46
  of
• 0:46
  today,
• 0:48
  water
• 0:48
  is
• 0:49
  up
• 0:49
  and
• 0:49
  dirty
• 0:50
  on
• 0:50
  pretty
• 0:50
  much
• 0:50
  all
• 0:50
  of
• 0:51
  our
• 0:51
  streams
• 0:51
  here.
• 0:52
  Locally
• 0:52
  blown
• 0:53
  out
• 0:53
  conditions.
• 0:54
  We
• 0:54
  expect
• 0:55
  spring
• 0:55
  to
• 0:55
  probably
• 0:55
  drop
• 0:56
  back
• 0:56
  down
• 0:56
  and
• 0:56
  be
• 0:57
  fishable
• 0:57
  by
• 0:58
  Saturday.
• 0:58
  So
• 0:59
  conditions
• 0:59
  should
• 0:59
  definitely
• 1:00
  improve
• 1:01
  later
• 1:01
  in
• 1:01
  the
• 1:02
  weekend
• 1:02
  on
• 1:02
  all
• 1:02
  the
• 1:03
  streams.
• 1:03
  And
• 1:03
  early
• 1:04
  next
• 1:04
  week
• 1:04
  conditions
• 1:05
  should
• 1:05
  be
• 1:05
  in
• 1:05
  pretty
• 1:06
  good
• 1:06
  shape.
• 1:06
  We're
• 1:06
  supposed
• 1:07
  to
• 1:07
  get
• 1:07
  a
• 1:07
  good
• 1:08
  shot
• 1:08
  of
• 1:08
  warm
• 1:08
  weather
• 1:09
  next
• 1:09
  week.
• 1:09
  So
• 1:10
  that
• 1:10
  should
• 1:10
  really
• 1:10
  get
• 1:10
  the
• 1:11
  bugs
• 1:11
  moving.
• 1:11
  Get
• 1:11
  some
• 1:11
  olives
• 1:12
  pop
• 1:12
  in,
• 1:12
  we
• 1:13
  should
• 1:13
  see
• 1:13
  midges,
• 1:13
  little
• 1:14
  black
• 1:14
  stone
• 1:14
  flies.
• 1:15
  And
• 1:16
  we're
• 1:16
  pretty
• 1:17
  much
• 1:17
  getting
• 1:17
  into
• 1:17
  springtime
• 1:18
  now,
• 1:18
  so
• 1:18
  all
• 1:19
  the
• 1:19
  bugs
• 1:19
  are
• 1:19
  going
• 1:19
  to
• 1:19
  be
• 1:19
  moving.
• 1:19
  Nymphing
• 1:20
  should
• 1:20
  improve.
• 1:21
  Dry
• 1:21
  fly
• 1:21
  fishing
• 1:21
  is
• 1:22
  going
• 1:22
  to
• 1:22
  pick
• 1:22
  up
• 1:23
  and
• 1:23
  we
• 1:24
  are
• 1:24
  almost
• 1:24
  there.
• 1:25
  Yeah.
• 1:25
  And
• 1:25
  then,
• 1:26
  you
• 1:26
  know,
• 1:26
  this
• 1:26
  summer
• 1:27
  you
• 1:27
  get
• 1:27
  lucky,
• 1:27
  right.
• 1:27
  And
• 1:27
  you're
• 1:28
  going
• 1:28
  to
• 1:28
  get
• 1:28
  some
• 1:28
  of
• 1:28
  those
• 1:28
  periodical
• 1:29
  cicadas.
• 1:30
  That's
• 1:31
  true.
• 1:31
  We're
• 1:31
  definitely
• 1:32
  getting
• 1:32
  our
• 1:32
  17
• 1:32
  year
• 1:33
  brood
• 1:33
  this
• 1:33
  year
• 1:33
  in
• 1:34
  central
• 1:34
  Pennsylvania.
• 1:35
  People
• 1:36
  keep
• 1:36
  asking
• 1:37
  when
• 1:37
  to
• 1:37
  expect
• 1:37
  them.
• 1:38
  Best
• 1:38
  guess
• 1:38
  for
• 1:39
  me
• 1:39
  is
• 1:39
  probably
• 1:39
  going
• 1:39
  to
• 1:40
  be
• 1:40
  we're
• 1:40
  going
• 1:40
  to
• 1:40
  start
• 1:40
  seeing
• 1:41
  them
• 1:41
  probably
• 1:42
  first,
• 1:42
  second
• 1:43
  week
• 1:43
  of
• 1:43
  June.
• 1:43
  I
• 1:44
  think
• 1:44
  mid
• 1:44
  June
• 1:45
  will
• 1:45
  probably
• 1:45
  be
• 1:45
  when
• 1:45
  they're
• 1:46
  going
• 1:46
  to
• 1:46
  be
• 1:46
  best.
• 1:47
  Mid
• 1:47
  June
• 1:47
  to
• 1:48
  early
• 1:48
  July
• 1:48
  is
• 1:48
  when
• 1:49
  they're
• 1:49
  going
• 1:49
  to
• 1:49
  be
• 1:49
  hitting
• 1:49
  the
• 1:49
  water
• 1:49
  and
• 1:50
  fish
• 1:50
  are
• 1:50
  really
• 1:50
  going
• 1:50
  to
• 1:50
  be
• 1:51
  looking
• 1:51
  to
• 1:51
  eat
• 1:51
  them.
• 1:52
  So
• 1:52
  that's
• 1:52
  going
• 1:52
  to
• 1:53
  get
• 1:53
  us
• 1:53
  a
• 1:53
  real
• 1:53
  long
• 1:54
  season
• 1:54
  here
• 1:54
  for
• 1:55
  a
• 1:56
  lot
• 1:56
  of
• 1:56
  dry
• 1:56
  fly
• 1:56
  activity
• 1:57
  and
• 1:57
  a
• 1:58
  lot
• 1:58
  of
• 1:58
  fun.
• 1:58
  It
• 1:58
  should
• 1:58
  be
• 1:58
  a
• 1:59
  crazy
• 1:59
  fun
• 1:59
  year
• 1:59
  this
• 2:00
  year.
• 2:00
  Yeah,
• 2:00
  got
• 2:01
  it.
• 2:01
  And
• 2:01
  I
• 2:01
  would
• 2:01
  imagine
• 2:02
  since
• 2:02
  we're
• 2:02
  moving
• 2:02
  into
• 2:02
  spring.
• 2:03
  Right.
• 2:03
  You're
• 2:03
  probably
• 2:03

• 2:04
  educational
• 2:04
  stuff
• 2:04
  in
• 2:05
  the
• 2:05
  shops
• 2:05
  probably
• 2:05
  winded
• 2:06
  down
• 2:06
  a
• 2:06
  little
• 2:06
  bit.
• 2:06
  But
• 2:06
  is
• 2:06
  there
• 2:06
  anything,
• 2:07
  you
• 2:07
  know,
• 2:08

• 2:09
  sales
• 2:09
  or
• 2:10
  like
• 2:10
  new
• 2:10
  inventory
• 2:10
  you
• 2:10
  want
• 2:10
  to
• 2:11
  share
• 2:11
  with
• 2:11

• 2:12
  For
• 2:12

• 2:13
  We
• 2:13

• 2:13
  have
• 2:13
  a
• 2:14

  will
• 3:05
  send

• 3:09
  stuff
• 3:09
  at
• 3:09
  the
• 3:09
  end
• 3:09
  of
• 3:09
  the
• 3:09
  season
• 3:09
  from
• 3:10
  the
• 3:10
  shop.
• 3:10
  And
• 3:11
  you
• 3:12
  know,
• 3:12
  as
• 3:12
  I
• 3:12
  always
• 3:12
  say,
• 3:12
  folks,
• 3:13
  if
• 3:13
  it's
• 3:13
  warm
• 3:13
  enough
• 3:13
  where
• 3:14
  you
• 3:14
  are
• 3:14
  to
• 3:14
  get
• 3:14
  out
• 3:14
  and
• 3:14
  fish,
• 3:15
  you
• 3:15
  should
• 3:15
  do
• 3:15
  that.
• 3:16
  If
• 3:16
  it's
• 3:16
  still
• 3:16
  cold
• 3:17
  where
• 3:17
  you
• 3:17
  are,
• 3:17
  I
• 3:17
  would
• 3:17
  encourage
• 3:18
  you
• 3:18
  to
• 3:18
  tie
• 3:18
  flies.
• 3:19
  If
• 3:19
  you're
• 3:19
  close
• 3:19
  to
• 3:19
  a
• 3:19
  fly
• 3:19
  fishing
• 3:20

• 3:20
  think
• 3:20
  Lancaster

  Check

  There

  are
• 3:25

  But
