They're comin' in strong at the Double X hole, umhumm!
The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) voted at its quarterly meeting today to acquire two easements along Crooked Creek in Erie County as part of the agency's strategy to improve public fishing and boating access and also adopted a five-year strategic plan for trout management.
"Crooked Creek provides significant steelhead fishing opportunities in the areas and regularly receives trout stockings," said PFBC Executive Director Doug Austen. "The acquisition of the easements will ensure that the public has access to these opportunities in perpetuity."
The two easement areas provide approximately a half-mile each of stream frontage and are located along Happy Valley Road and Lucas Road in Springfield Township. The properties are adjacent and the Lucas Road property will provide parking and a footpath to the creek.
