Fishing Creek is a small trout stream with a population of wild brown trout in the southwestern corner of Lancaster County. The stream had become eroded and widened where it passes through the Valley Lea Riding Club's property.
With a generous grant from Exelon Corporation, DTU teamed up with Valley Lea and the PA Fish & Boat Commission to restore the banks and place valuable fish habitat in June of 2010.
Here's a video taken by the Project Leader of some PA F&BC men hard at work on the project.
In July 2011, DTU partnered with Lancaster County Conservancy, Fishing Creek Watershed Association, Drumore Township, Flyway Construction and the PA Fish & Boat Commission to address 2 sites on the Conservancy land with terrible erosion problems. With the help of some local college students, the job was complete in 2 days.
