any shenango fishing reports?

going to try make it up there with the boat  this weekend was woundering if any actoin yet on the lake forecast looks great also anybody know the water temp?

We have fished it a couple times with no success.Water was very dirty and cold 46 degrees last time we were up. But after reading the post on the fish consumption warnings I really think I will not be fishing there that much in the future. I made a few phone calls to get a little more info and needless to say it really opened my eyes. If you look at the warnings,they are putting crappie & walleye and such at Shenango in the same consumption level as eating a carp from the Mon river. Heres a link for those that missed it.

I have a couple young kids and would maybe like to have more so I can tell you no one in my family will be eating fish from Shenago anytime in the near future. I think I'll stick with Pymie,we have been doing way better up there this year anyway.

You are correct Denny.   There has been a lot of misinformation about Shenango Lake in another post due to the confusing nature of the English language.   The mouth of a river is more often than not (or always) on the downstream end of that river.  The mouth of an animals digestive system is more often than not on the upstream end of the system.  There could be some exceptions to that one out there.  The advisory is from Shenango dam downstream to the mouth.  The advisory panel would do well to insert the word downstream in advisory for more clarity.  That is all below Shenango Lake where heavy industry from Sharon and other towns have heavily polluted the Shenango River over the decades.  Someone delicately pointed this out in the other post.   Enjoy Shenango Lake, but be wary on the highway.  Statistics will show far more deaths on our highways than casualties from eating fish from Shenango Lake.       

do you know water temp?
