Listen Later

Join The Articulate Fly's latest fishing report as host Marvin Cash connects with George Costa from TCO Fly Shop in State College for essential Central Pennsylvania fishing insights.

Costa breaks down current fishing conditions across the region, where low and clear water demands technical approaches and finesse tactics. Learn why dry dropper techniques are producing consistent results, with small Chubby Chernobyls or hoppers paired with tiny ant patterns proving especially effective in these challenging conditions. Costa shares valuable timing strategies for evening caddis hatches that are delivering solid dry fly action, while morning trico opportunities continue despite winding down for the season. Discover the critical importance of long leaders and stealthy approaches when targeting spooky trout in crystal-clear, low water conditions.

Costa also provides updates on TCO's upcoming fall and winter fly tying classes plus details on upcoming travel destinations.

Whether you're planning Central Pennsylvania fishing trips or looking to refine your technical dry dropper skills, this report delivers actionable intelligence for making the most of challenging fall fishing conditions.
