Fly Fishing Dyberry Creek Pennsylvania
Dyberry Creek is a tributary of the Lackawaxen River located in northeast Pennsylvania. It’s a heavily stocked stream that offers good early and late season fly fishing opportunities. Fly fishing Dyberry Creek can be a fun filled experience with a variety of opportunities.
The upper sections consist of two branches – the East Branch and the West Branch. The East Branch of Dyberry Creek flows out of Lower Woods Pond into the West Branch six miles downstream from the lake. It’s a very small, narrow stream. There are some wild brook and a few wild brown trout in the upper sections. Alder Marsh Brook is a small tributary of the East Branch. Both it and the East Branch have native brook trout.
The banks of the stream are solid with trees and much of the stream stays cool most of the year. In the hotest part of the Summer, fishing can slow down.
Access is good. State Roads #4007 and #1023 are parallel to the East Branch and there is ample parking along the way. The West Branch of Dyberry Creek is also a small stream. Access is provided by State Routes #371, #4017 and #247. The West Branch has small
pools with riffles between them. It’s very suitable for dry fly fishing but you have to hike into most of the stream. The West Branch has a small tributary called the Middle
Branch. It too, has native brook trout. The East and West Branches join together at Tanners Falls to form the main stem of Dyberry Creek.
The main stem of Dyberry Creek is much larger, averaging as much as fifty feet wide in places. About a mile south of Tanners Falls is the Delayed Harvest Section. Fly fishing Dyberry Creek is best in this section. It’s fly fishing only water that runs from the Widmer
property line for eight tenths of a mile downstream to the Mary Wilcox Bridge, or State Route #4009. The main stem is accessible from State Routes #4006 and #191.
The stream has a very good population of aquatic insects consisting of mayflies, caddisflies, stoneflies and midges. There are also a good population of minnow, baitfish and some crayfish.
