Just got back from a week up Tionesta, always heard & read 3 days before and after the full moon was the best time to fish. Full moon if I'm right was Friday, Wednesday & Thursday did very well on the smallmouth on the Allegheny, Rebel crayfish was the ticket. Many were hitting it before I started winding. Fished the outflow earlier in the week didn't do any good, couple little smallmouth, water level low, same with the river. Thursday evening was the best, didn't count but between 6:30 and dark I'd say I got 20 smallmouth, 2 pike and one brown trout, unbelievable evening! Rebel crayfish, gold Rapala were the ticket. Biggest smallmouth was about 16", pike were maybe 25", twins, trout was about 15". Overall had a good week, weather was good, rained last weekend but nothing major.
