The Feathered Hook Inn (Fly Shop)

My friend Dave Zamos won a trip to The Feathered Hook Bed & Breakfast at the Bucks County Trout Unlimited Banquet, which was graciously donated by Jonas Price the owner.  So Dave asked me to come along and make a weekend out of it.  I couldn't pass up the chance to fish Penns, Pine, Elk and Fishing Creek all located within a few minutes from the bed and breakfast.  The breakfast was great and Jonas was a great host.

You will see many an Amish Wagon when you get to Coburn.  This area is in the middle of Amish farms. 


Penn Creek looking downstream at the Tunnel (Catch & Release)

We were there in the middle of June, heat wave hit the area and caused Penn's water temperatures to rise.

Elk and Penn Creek meet.  The cold water from Elk mixing with Penn.  You can see the fog coming off the stream


Dave and I fished Penns Creek where Elk creek came in.  With the water temperatures near seventy degrees on Penn, Elk's temperature was between sixty to sixty five.  The trout on Elk were eager to take a dry fly.


One night Dave and I had dinner at the Millheim Hotel.  Monday was Prime Rib night, our bill for the two of us came out to $30.00 and that was with a tip.  What a deal, two Prime Rib dinners, we each had drinks and dessert.
