As long as hot afternoons have been warming waters around the country, trout have been forced to find cooler water that allows them to thrive with their unique tolerance range. Waters in the Poconos are no exception as recently finding cooler water has proven challenging. Nevertheless, I recently found a spot where cooler water meets with a bigger river. I have been gifted with some outstanding fishing conditions and huge fish at the confluence of these two bodies of water. The fish are aggressive and very opportunistic here and I have a blast catching them throughout this video. This video shows two days of fishing during the same week in mid-July.
