Jack,
It's a small world. One of the fellas who owns the "Devil's Den" cabin next to that camp (the 7-mile camp, as it is 7 miles up from the Manor Hotel at the mouth which burnt down last year and is rebuilt better than ever) also has a cabin next to mine in SE PA. If you would have worked that water well upstream or started out well downstream, there is no way you couldn't catch some nice brookies and browns of various sizes.
Pine Creek is so loaded with browns, bows and good hatches that it will become too popular soon I fear.
My buddy's family owns a cabin just a bit north on Gamble Run (midway between Slate and Cedar Runs). Have spent many years up there enjoying God's country. While the rail trail is an improvement, it has brought many people up there and is not as remote as before.
