Good bottle of wine, fresh fish fillets and baked potatoes doesn't get any better than that.

My old man called me last night and said he was killing the walleye from shore on Crawlers. Said in his time fishing there over the past 40 or so years he's never seen it like this.

I had a chance to fish pymy a few days ago. Same reports as just about everyone else: terrific crappie fishing, LOADS of 14 inch walleyes, some jumbo perch, and some catfish mixed in. Lots of fun.

Last 3 days and well over 75 walleye only 4 keepers tho, one was 26" 5lb 11oz the others were 16-18" and the small ones were 13-14 1/2", definitely reminds me of the early 90's (all were caught mid day, started around 1pm-4pm)...Also a bunch of nice 12"+ crappies don't think we caught one under 12" with most around the 14 range...

What kind of set up are most of you guys using to hit the crappies, going up the end of the week for a few days. This will be my first time out on Pymatuning so any help is appreciated. Weather is looking spectacular, can't wait!

When out on the pontoon this weekend with the family, we were trolling hot-n-tots and worm harnesses and picking up crappies, most however came drifting...I was drifting a 2 hook set up with a jig on the bottom with night crawler and a floating jig head with minnow... and my other rod was a minnow under a slip float... today out of the yak was a minnow under a slip float...
Other buddies were picking them up drifting minnows also both on the bottom and under float depending on the speed of the drift...
As far as water depth, it didn't matter...seriously it didn't...we were catching fish in water from 5' to 18'...Saturday and Sunday on the south side of causeway, decided to fish there seeing we haven't fished south end in a few years, and Monday on the north end, leaving pontoon at Linesville marina for the rest of the year...

And Mika, anytime you want to fish out of the yaks let me know...I am going to try and make it out on the yak at least once/week if not more...I was out on it yesterday evening as well for a few hours after the family had left to head home...I love living up here now, no more 1 1/2 hour drive home to Pittsburgh after a weekend...

That was me out there in the yak on monday...a net, 2 rods, a minnow bucket and some tackle just looks like a lot, but you should see when I have 2 doz decoys, shotgun, and a bag with ammo and calls and such, o and the dog...thats a lot of stuff...
I was going to take it out again today, but the wind was kicking pretty good so I decided to fish from shore...

Saw where someone capsized yesterday in a 14ft. boat.
A fellow picked them up in a pontoon. Be careful.
