New Here...Transplant from MI to PA
#20
@sportsman25: The river is in good shape this year. Saturday Im going to go over to Conowingo reservoir for some walleye. 2" shiners below a bobber near the rocks. What area of PA you in? Im South of Harrisburg. Ive been reading about the Salmon that were once in the Susquehanna River. My research indicates that the last recorded catch of a salmon in the Susquehanna was in 1951 which proves that the creeks and streams feeding the susky can sustain returning runs. One note is that the State last planted salmon from Pacific eggs in 1898 showing that for 50 years after stockings there were salmon present. At that time it was also noted that commercial gill netting in the Chesapeake Bay was uncontrolled.

Just imagine the economic impact of salmon in the Susky? It would be a great investment in the area.
