fishing spot

Lakes, creeks and rivers throughout the area are flush with fishing opportunities, like Little Lehigh Creek’s spring-fed stretch. Relax on the bank one summer Saturday and you’ll be dipping your hook into the stream with a healthy trout population, thanks to a massive mayfly hatch this time of year. Or hop on a boat and glide onto Leaser Lake in New Tripoli, well stocked with catfish, bass and walleye. As they say, a bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at work.

The first Saturday in September sees the Funky Ferments Fest return at the Easton Farmers’ Market, a celebration of the tangy, the sour and the foods leveled-up by chemical breakdown. This could be where you learn to make your own sauerkraut, kombucha or sourdough. And for any adults looking to start spending Saturdays on a home brewing hobby, check out Keystone Homebrew Supply in Bethlehem for all the ingredients and equipment to make your own wine, beer, mead, cider and more.
