NOTE: While this map will display on a phone, it is best viewed on a larger monitor or tablet.
The map above is a fishing forecast map that uses USGS streamflow data and weather (barometric pressure, storm fronts) to forecast good fishing days in the 6-day outlook. Falling pressure is a good day to fish. Rising pressure is not. The flow indicators (pin colors) compare current conditions with historical data and indicate whether the stream is high, low, or ideal for fishing. We also consider whether the flow is increasing or decreasing.
Additionally, the pins will show a prediction for the insects you should encounter on each stream and a general statewide “current hatches” hint in the flow legend. We’re improving this metric to attempt to better predict hatches per stream based on temperature, flow, air temperature and basic season/biology, but that feature is in development.

Philip was born and raised in Bedford, Pennsylvania. After moving to the Pittsburgh region for school and work, he returned to Bedford, where he resides today. Philip is pursuing a bachelor of science in Environmental Policy and Management from Purdue University and currently works as a design consultant in the luxury fashion industry. As a young child, he spent countless hours fishing and exploring the small freestone streams near his home. Philip soon discovered fly fishing and has been an avid fly fisher for thirty years. His fascination with fish led to his involvement in water and fish conservation. Over the last several years, Philip has been involved in conservation projects, including at an international level, with U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Conservation International. More recently, he served as national vice-chair of Native Fish Coalition, building relationships with state government agencies such as the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Department of Environmental Protection, Fish & Boat Commission, and conservation non-profits. His primary focus is informing and educating anglers, negotiating with stakeholders in the government and the private sector, and protecting and enhancing wild native brook trout habitats in Pennsylvania.
