The first week of June for our clients and LHGS guides was bountiful. Summer bugs are popping in , but sporadic. Storms and releases from the dam have changed conditions daily. River temps are above 65 in Ohiopyle and with the heat this week, they will continue to climb. Sadly, now is the time to carry a thermometer and check in on temps throughout the day, especially in the afternoons.

We are booked for the rest of June. Start thinking about smallmouth sipping bugs in the shade lines. We have open dates for smallmouth trips, starting in July and throughout the rest of summer.

We'll see y'all on the river ✌️

Sean fished with LHGS last year on the targeting smallmouth and added a bonus musky. This year he wanted to work on trout techniques, mission accomplished. Its beyond rewarding to see these young anglers develop and improve their fishing prowess.
