BUSHKILL CREEK WATERSHED 
Bushkill Creek Watershed Map.pdf
The Bushkill Creek rises at the base of the Kittatinny Ridge (locally known as "Blue Mountain") in Moore and Bushkill Townships, flowing south by southeast for about 20 miles before turning east to enter the Delaware River in downtown Easton. The Bushkill Creek watershed comprises about 80 square miles near the center of Northampton County. The Bushkill Creek is designated as high quality coldwater fishery (HQCWF). The upper section flows as a freestone stream through Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center where Sobers Run enters. The Little Bushkill enters in Stockertown. Below Tatamy, the stream is influenced by limestone springs, cooling the water and providing for a class A wild brown trout fishery. The headwaters contain a small population of brook trout worth protecting.

MARTINS CREEK WATERSHED
The Martins-Jacoby watershed , located in northeast Northampton County, is comprised of Martins Creek, its tributaries, Little Martins Creek and Waltz Creek, the Jacoby Creek, and other tributaries to the Delaware River. Both, Waltz Creek, which is HQCWF, and the smaller Slateford Creek, which is designated Exceptional Value (EV), could be a pleasant surprise for fly fishermen used to tiny waterways. Martins Creek provides year-round fishing for wild and stocked trout with the fall and winter seasons being outstanding. Most of the streams are freestone with a few such as Mud Run, the lower portion of Martins Creek and Jacoby Creek having a limestone influence.
