We are one of pa's leading fishing camps. We are located at the mouth of the juniata river, where it joins the susquehanna, in the heart of some of the best smallmouth bass fishing around. Both rivers, long known for exceptional bass fishing---are one big spawning bed in this area. It is a maze of ledges, rocks, patches and bars.
With rather fast water over a shallow bottom. Boating is limited due to shallow depth and no distinct channels, but small boats or canoes will let you do a fine job of working these rivers. Spring and fall, when not frozen over, we have a lot of large fish. As the water warms up, the numbers increase and the size goes down.

Save Our Susquehanna
Report
The PFBC's mission of Resource First requires us to step up our efforts to help our smallmouth fishery before it's too late. This is why the PFBC has launched the "Save Our Susquehanna!" or S.O.S. campaign to generate support for the Susquehanna River. What can you do to help? Whether you are an angler or not, buy a fishing license.
Fishing
Report
The only time restriction you are under is the fact that all our rental boats must be off the water "BEFORE SUNSET". This is a rule of the PA state Fishing Commission. We can usually put you on the water at an access that will give you the amount of fishing time you wish, based on the amount of mileage covered.
Camping
Report
The camp is run mainly to accommodate fishermen. We have no playground, video games, entertainment, or the more common things found in a tourist camp. We do have ice, cold sodas, snacks and a very good supply of live bait, tackle, boats, canoes, transportation, shuttle service and most anything you can think of to make your camping & fishing more enjoyable.

Thanks for visiting. Please leave a comment about our Campground. I camped here several years ago with a now Late friend and loved it I'll be up by myself in 2015. I love this camp been to others but none compare it's always beautiful, peaceful and quite! P.S. Caught lots of fish too!
Many thanks to John Conningham for the shuttle ride to Clemson Island last Thrusday, secure parking for the weekend, and restocking us with Penrod Special Tubes and Jig Heads.He set up our 8th annual Susquehanna River fishing camp (3 Adults+4 boys) on one of the Island Campsites just above Haldamen Island and caught well over 250 Bass with many over 2 pounds and some over 3.
