Delco Bait & Tackle

There's nothing better than making memories with dad!

Abram was fishing with his dad, Brad, on Mentored Youth Trout Day last year when he landed this trout at Lake Pleasant in Erie County.

“The weather was miserable that afternoon, cold and rainy so we had the lake to ourselves for a few hours.”

If you want to teach your little one to fish this year, take advantage of Mentored Youth Day on March 28!

Opening Day of trout season is in a few weeks and maybe you're looking for a couple new tricks to land that trophy trout.
Well, we have you covered!

Frank Nale, who has logged over 30,000 hours of stream time the last 47 years will share his knowledge of spinner fishing for trout in this free online program!

"As a kid I fished two local stocked streams with bait. Then in 1979 I tried fishing with spinners for the first time and, as they say, was hooked immediately," Nale said.

It’s Skwala Time — and the BWO’s are Crashing the Party Dry fly season is knocking, and yes… it brought Skwalas and BWOs to the door. If you’re the kind of angler who enjoys long pauses between sips and sudden explosions on top, now’s your moment. The hatches are here, and the fish are looking up—as long as you’re patient enough to wait them out. Let’s not sugarcoat it: It’s March. That means rain, cold wind, and enough pressure swings to confuse even the most seasoned trout. One minute they’re up eating bugs like it’s brunch, and the next they’re glued to the bottom like it’s a snow day. But here’s the deal—if you’re fishing water in the low 40s, the trout aren’t working too hard. Find the soft seams, and fish like a Jedi. No splashdowns, no sloppy mends. Don’t pound the water like it owes you money. Lay it down soft, keep your mends light, and let the fly do the talking. This time of year rewards the cool-headed and the quietly obsessed. If that’s you, get out there and put in your time. No complaining about the weather, the wind, or the fish being “off.” It’s Skwala season—embrace the grind. #SkwalaSeason #BWOFishing #DryFlyOrDie #MarchHatches #SlowWaterSuccess #FlyFishingLife #YakimaRiver #TroutSnacks #DryFlyAddict #WinterToSpringFishing
