Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and Tunkhannock areas are great places for fishing!

Living in this area is simply a bass fisherman's dream location.  We have so many different and diverse waterways in every directions it is simply amazing.  We have awesome fishing of the finger lakes just a couple hours north of us. We have the super clear and deep Beltzville reservoir.  Lake Wallenpuapack which made the top 100 list in Bassmaster magazine of the best Bass fishing destinations in the country.  The Poconos region also has tons of small lakes and the Diamond in the rough(Shohola Marsh), which has a really impressive Largemouth, Pickeral, and Panfish population.  The legendary Susquehanna River flows right through out backyards in this area with catch's of over 100 smallmouth bass with an occasional walleye, a day reported when the conditions come together just right.  We have fantastic Natural Lakes, like Lake Winola and Harvey's Lake which both provide fantastic fishing opportunities for both bass and trout.  We have lots of small man-made lakes thanks to the PA Fish Commission, many of which have big bass regulations that keep the population of bass on the heavier and bigger side!  Further out to the east we have access to Lakes like Candlewood and Rivers like the Potomac and Chesapeake Bay which are actually Southeast.  To the North, yet within state lines are lakes like Duck Harbor and Prompton Dam, which are awesome fisheries as well.  To the West we have Cowanesque and Hammond Lakes which are both excellent Bass, Muskie and Crappie fishing lakes.  Further West we are within driving distance of Presque Isle Bay on the Legendary Lake Erie, where 100 fish days happen almost enough to call it a common occurrence, with super sized smallmouth bass, yellow perch, walleye, salmon, and trout to boot!  Further North we are within driving distance of the Eastern portion of Erie, Lake Ontario, 1000 Islands, Black Lake, and countless other world famous fishing destinations!  Come and enjoy the perfectly located North East PA!  The number of great fisheries that are all within reach in this portion of the country is staggering.  I sure do enjoy living in an area where I can drive 5 minutes and hit the river and catch smallmouth bass nonstop or I can drive to a place like Oneida Lake and enjoy the healthy Walleye, Smallmouth, and Largemouth Bass fishery that it is, fishing in a completely different way!
