Nestled in the scenic Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania, Brodhead Creek is a 21.9-mile long tributary of the Delaware River with a rich angling heritage. Often referred to as the birthplace of American fly fishing, this historic waterway offers clear, cool waters flowing through diverse landscapes from forested headwaters to mountain gorges. Once known as one of the premiere fly fishing destinations in the world, Brodhead Creek is experiencing a resurgence thanks to conservation efforts and regular stocking programs. The creek features classic pool, run, and riffle configurations typical of Pennsylvania trout streams, enhanced by strategically placed boulders that improve trout habitat.
