Babbs Creek is a tributary to the famous Pine Creek in Northcentral Pa. The junction of the two is in Blackwell, Pa. Babbs Creek is just North of Slate Run and Cedar Run. The headwaters of Babbs are from areas of Arnot to Stoney Fork. Before Coal mining in the area Babbs was a fantastic fishery holding many wild and native trout. After Coal mining Babbs Creek was a dead stream due Acid Mine Drainage. Recently installed limestone wells along smaller tributaries with AMD has brought Babbs Creek back from a dead stream. Aquatic insects not seen for 20+ years are returning and so are the trout. Babbs Creek is not currently stocked but has plenty of Brook Trout and a few Browns that have moved up from Pine Creek. It has not become a popular fishing stream yet, so you won't find many people on it. I hope it stays that way. But for you true fly fishing fanatics, try fishing Babbs Creek next time your in Northcentral Pa.
