Fishing Near Sharon/Mercer

Two weekends from now I will have some time to kill while my wife is taking a class in youngstown.  Figured I'd make it a fishing day.  I'm looking for areas to fish for musky or pike.  I can bring a canoe with a tolling motor or I have a 16ft boat with an outboard jet.  So far I am thinking of trying Shenango lake or a swamp area on Otter creek.  I am also curious about an area south west of mercer just north of I80.  I think my map showed it's part of little neshanock.  I appreciate any advice as I've never fished anything in that area.  If you don't want to post on here I understand... you can pm or email me at [link=mailto:h20wolf@hotmaildotcom]h20wolf@hotmaildotcom[/link]
Thanks and if anyone needs info for south of the burgh or even into west virginia give me a holler.
Mike

    Stonebreaker Swamp some call it Pine Swamp can be seen from I-80. South West of Mercer , Noth side of 80. Have not fished it in years lots of private land , not easy access, not real deep. Loaded with timber and weeds. Never heard any good stories over the years but it should hold Pike. Might all be posted now not sure . Highly doubt any Musky anywhere near there. Good duck hunting in the past. Amish own a good chunk on the West side. Best bet Shenango Lake.
