Jim Eckenrode from the Blair County Conservation District presented the plans for monitoring important stream parameters such as temperature, turbidity, pH and conductivity along the upper J at the February meeting held Thursday the 11th. The data will be important for monitoring the health of the river and making a case for HQCW designation in the upper J. During the winter months the meetings of the LJRA will be held the second Thursday of the month at 7PM.

River cam in place on Little J

As of Feb. 13th we have the capability to monitor the conditions on the river via a camera. The river cam is located at the Greene Hill Campground on the river bank below Barree. It is managed by LJRA Life Member, Beth Teeter, camp host.   For the time being, this camera is being updated every 10 minutes. Just click on the Rivercam menu button on this website to see the latest shot.

New book about Little j

I have received a good quantity of the first edition of “Trout Boomer and The Little J”. It includes: Hatches, stretches, my patterns and LJRA history. You can buy it on-line at www.troutboomer.com. Orders placed on this website come directly to me and I will autograph and/or personalize your copy as you wish. It is a hardback with numerous color photos and pictures (mostly taken on the “j”).

New posts

I see that a number of the formerly active Forum members have been reregistered, but few have posted or responded to a post. Please do us a favor and post something (or respond to a post). Then let me know if you encounter a difficulty…. If you fail in your attempt, email me bjuniata@Verizon.net.

Thanks,

Bill
