The Fishing......
There are over 75 miles of trout fishing on the Upper Delaware River system. It is comprised of the East branch, West branch
and Main Stem of the Delaware. Each section differs in character, flow and when they are best fished.
The river and its branches contain a significant number of rainbow trout and a healthy
population of brown trout. The Main Stem has a larger ratio of rainbow trout to brown trout. The
reverse is true for its branches. Fish of 15 to 18 inches are commonly taken with flies. Fish of
20 inches or larger can be caught during favorable conditions.
Hatches on the Upper Delaware River can be prolific at times. The Main Stem and East branch
are best fished in spring and fall when hatching activity is at its best. The West branch and
upper East branch can be fished through the entire season due to bottom releases from
Cannonsville and Pepacton reservoirs.
Indian Springs offers guide service for all three branches. Two-bedroom cabins that sleep four
with full kitchen facilities can be arrange at your request. Reservations for cabins must be
and shuttle. A fifty percent deposit is required to secure your reservation.
