Yellow Creek is Bedford County's premier limestone stream with 10
miles of stocked water. The upper meadow section, above Loysburg,
resembles a classic limestone stream flowing through pastures where
erosion and siltation can be a problem. From Loysburg downstream, Yellow
Creek changes character as it loses elevation and flows through the
Loysburg Gap where large boulders, deep pools and fast riffles produce
large trout all season. A Delayed Harvest Fly Fishing Only Area can be
accessed by turning off Route 36 onto SR 1024 (at the New Frontier
Restaurant) and driving several miles to the second bridge. The special
regulation area begins upstream where Maple Run enters Yellow Creek and
continues upstream for 1 mile. Lower sections of the stream hold trout in
the spring and summer. FLIES OF
