I have heard of reports of huge flatheads caught out of these reserviors in easter PA and even have seen pics. Some say that the new population of flathead catfish in the Schuylkill River is because they came out of Blue Marsh Reservior after floods. Have anyone else heard this too???? has nayone fished any of these waters????

Sprinton Reservior is closed to all fishing.

I was there once this year on a very cold night with no luck. I have seen Pics of big Flattys from Blue Marsh in a bait store up that way, and on this link. I am heading there a few times this spring & summer.http://www.fish.state.pa.us/pafish/catfish_flathead/00flathead.htm
