Listen to the battle over fishing rights on the Little J. (article
prepared June 21, 2006)
Fishing is one of summer's pleasures.
And the Little Juniata River is one of the state's finest trout

stretch belongs to a private fishing club or to the people of
Pennsylvania.
This story, by outdoors writer Deborah Weisberg, was a production of “The Allegheny Front,” broadcast on NPR member station WYEP in Pittsburgh. Links:
