Projects enhance fishing opportunities in Pennsylvania’s state parks, forests

It’s no secret that Pennsylvania is home to more than 83,000 miles of rivers and streams and thousands of lakes and ponds – most of which are excellent places to go fishing for species such as perch, walleye, bass, and trout. However, what might be lesser known are the diverse opportunities to enjoy the sport in Pennsylvania’s state parks and forests. In fact, 101 of the 124 state parks and all 20 state forests have bodies of water open for angling.
