Shenango River Lake 2016
 I see the forecast for the lake is calling for a lower level. With this new snow pack, and more said to be coming this Wednesday I'm guessing the 'powers of the water' are anticipating a quick refill. Anybody know if the docks are in yet, just kidding.................. not! C'mon spring!!!!!

They put the docks in two weeks after Ice out every year. That's usually around April but I think it's going to be earlier this year. I'll be fishing way before the docks go in tho. I ain't scared to get a little dirt in my boat.

I ~TOLD~ you I was to fat to climb in your silly boat. That's why you pushed me in the water. I froze all day, and it had nothing to do with my silly summer clothes.  I don't do good on Arthur until may, so looks like you're hosting the April fishing!

Because Dave, Zelie and I both need one of those boat dock thingys to get into a boat (getting out, not so much). Plus, Zelie comes from the south and doesn't have any cold weather clothing.

Ohhhhhhhh, I wouldn't expect Sam to bring a step stool so 'WE' could get in the boat. He brought the minnows the last time and I, had to use some old jigs, I luckily found laying in my boat.

Maybe you can just get a ladder like they put on swimming pools and attach it to the back of the fish hawk!

Hell........... I.. didn't know they took the docks out and about crapped my britches when I saw they were gone.
Laugh every time I think about it.
Was a good time and you did well with the Crappie.
