Poe Paddy State Park, Pennsylvania

June in Poe Paddy State Park is a spectacle to behold―and fluttered by eccentric exoskeletons. The nationally recognized mayfly’s well-synchronized, communal hatch is a wildlife moniker that’s rightfully totted by Poe Paddy State Park rangers. Aside from the entomology-savvy aerial act, the area’s crawling with activities―and sublime fishing. Nestled in between the park’s two namesake mountains (Poe Mountain and Paddy Mountain), the water-carving Poe Creek inundates the area’s lower campgrounds with impeccable trout fishing. So be sure to pack-up a picnic and immerse yourself in the spectacle that’s the Green Drake Hatch, all from within your quilted confines that lies adjacent to Penn Creek.
