| Pennsylvania Trout Fishing | |
| Trout Fishing in Pennsylvania The 5 primary trouts are the rainbow, brook, brown, cutthroat and lake trout. Brown trout are considered the most difficult to catch and brookies are the easiest. Pure cold water is key to survival of the trouts and the brook trout is the most sensitive to temperature. The others are comfortable in slightly warmer waters. Penn Trout Fishing Lakes You don't have to go far to find trout in Pennsylvania. Many of the rivers and streams hold trout as do small lakes and ponds. The major lakes offering trout fishing include Blue Marsh Lake, Glendale Lake, Lake Erie, Lake Wallenpaupack and Raystown Lake. Visit the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission for information about trout stocking in PA. The Pennsylvania state record brook trout was caught out of Fishing Creek and Walnut Creek gave up the Pennsylvania state record brown trout. Lake Erie served up both the state record lake trout and the state record palomino trout. The PA state record rainbow trout came out of Jordan Creek. Rainbow Trout
