The LEHIGH RIVER is a TAILWATER that flows from the Francis E. Walter Dam located in WHITEHAVEN 32 miles north of JIM THORPE.
This Dam provides cool water year round, creating excellent conditions for Trout and the insects they feed on.
I provide a Walk/Wade Guide service for One or more Fishermen along this Beautiful River and its Scenic Tributaries.
I also keep a camper trailer at a campground on the Pine Creek in Tioga County PA This Camp has hot water showers,flush toilets and sleeping accommodations for fisherman that would like to join me there.
I Guide on other Creeks, Streams and Rivers in Pennsylvania.
