Octoraro Creek
Not at all deep, wide and shallow, nice parking but if you get to the very end where Octoraro Creek meets the Susquehanna it can get pretty nasty. Good place to train beginers but if they go out too far you may never see them again. Somedays the current at the mouth gets to be too much unless you have a rider picking you up downstream a couple miles....

Octoraro Creek
This is a great run, especially after heavy rains.  You can turn this 6 mile trip into a 21 mile trip by putting in at Octoraro Lake, on Rt 472, Oxford PA...

Lake Aldred

Where can I obtain daily water conditions, i. e. , water turbidity, debris conditions,water level, etc. For Lake Aldred.

This summer's frequent storms have muddied local feeder streams to the extent that they are almost unfishable.

Lake Aldred is a favorite smallmouth and walleye fishery since my return to PA ten years ago. This summer has been a real bummer on the river. ...
