The Pine Creek Tragedy - Interview with Jeff Phelan

What happened to this little but healthy trout water is anything but a crime.  In the early fall of 2020, Pine Creek suffered a dramatic and deadly event: a lack of water. Killing hundreds if not thousands of stranded trout, little Pine Creek could not readily withstand this total lack of respect for a cold water fishery that supported populations of brook, rainbow and brown trout.  Master angler and fly fishing guide Jeff Phelan - who lives right along a beautiful section of the creek, explains this event as it unfolded and what he and others did to deal with it via the NYS DEC and other responsible parties.
