Fishaholik,
    Hello fellow angler!!!!!!
 If you want to drive a little ,take the turnpike east to donegal exit and 711 north. from there you can find donegal lake and four mile run with-in 2-3 miles.  or travel further to Ligonier area ( stay on 711 north about 12 miles )  you can fish Loyalhanna delayed harvest artifical lures section or mill creek  which empties into the loyalhanna Also Linn Run for a mountain stream stocked with brook trout. If you are into native trout Camp Run off of 381 near jones mill is a real nice little stream with hungry native brook trout in just about every pool. Use the link from the other reply to find these spots. I hope these suggestions work for you!!!!
