French Creek

It's been too many years, but does anyone fish French Creek where Conneautee Creek dumps in? I was wondering if it's worth a drive to try that place again?

Nope, the crick at shaws is the conneaut outlet.
Conneauttee comes out of Edinboro lake.

Used to fish it all the time, one of my favorite spots on the northern side of french.
Haven't been up there in a couple years, but it's always worth the drive IMO.
Good place to catch bowfin, among other things...and see flying squirrels.

Started there and went upstream on kayak last yaer a couple times. Amazing how the area is a big pool. Lots of timber in the water. I fished for musky w/out success. PFBC warning abut a bridge downstream that could fall in the water at any time.

My camp is near French Creek where Conneautee Creek comes into it. Its out Cambridge Springs Pa. Come south on RT 19 Riverside motel is on the left at the red light turn right. Go stright out go about a mile or so, you can see a parking lot on the left. That is where Conneautee Creek comes into French creek. You can catch some big walleyes in october and november. As springs comes it is also good as soon ice out in the spring time. Thanks for looking and have a nice day

malice i had that same problem when i fished french back in july. i'm thinking i probably just picked the wrong spot to fish, but i only had a few bites and didnt catch any fish.

well, i fished right at the PAFBC canoe launch off of 322 when i went up there. I figured I didn't catch much because it probably saw a good bit of fishing pressure due to the canoe launch. that, and I saw a few other groups of people fishing there. i thought about wading upstream, but it got a little too deep/too muddy to continue wading further up.

I didn't think I would cause so much confusion. The Conneautee dumps into French Creek outside Cambridge Springs. It's the creek that runs out of Edinboro Lake. Flatfish4 is right. I fished there with my Dad and Granddad many, many years ago. I was always told it was a good spot, but never did very well.

I just got back from Conneautee Creek ...................

I have been looking for years on this forum but never felt the need to respond. I think this might be note worthy due to the the events from this post.

I fished the area that was described by a poster and was cited for treaspassing, it seems there has been issues with the land owner, i guess that area is private property.

Beware, it isnt worth the fine IMO

fished there for 30 years through 2004. we had a place on 285 1 mile up from Cochranton,  waterfront.  I lived on that creek all summer long as a kid,  up and down in all day long in my john boat with a 9.9.   My stepmother sold the place after my Dad died, but I still own 40 acres of property along the highway
