Catfish?

I live in norhtern Washington Co., and I am looking for some good catfishing in PA. I have had some luck in Ohio on chicken liver and blue gill, but I would like to give PA a try this year. Are there some good spots in Sewickley and Emsworth??

    If you have a boat launch at Leetsdale and head towards the dam. If going from shore walk behind the industrial park towards little sewickley creek mouth.

    From what I hear any of the three rivers are good for cats.  Havn't really fish there for them myself but I do beleive thats where you'll find the biggest cats.

    I agree, you should be good on any of the rivers. I know there are nice cats in the lower Yough and all throughout the Mon.

    Check out the Big Bend area on the Alle River, around where there big boulders along shore. A guy that used to post on here got huge shovelheads out of there. Heavy tackle and bluegill. He got one that broke the state record but didn't report it.
