The 2019 Trout Stocking Schedule is online. If you are interested in helping with trout stocking, search for your county from the drop-down list on the schedule. Pick your favorite stream to meet the stocking trout on the date and time of stocking. 
 
Erie County Presque Isle Bay Anglers are catching Northern Bay in several of the small bays using flashy spinnerbaits. Anglers are catching panfish and Largemouth Bass in Misery Bay.
 
Forest County Allegheny River Northern Pike and Muskellunge fishing has been productive from shore and boats.  Anglers can access the Sand and Gravel Island from the parking area near the Lighthouse and walk to the Allegheny River or Tionesta Creek.  The confluence of the Allegheny River and Council Run is productive for Musky and Northern Pike. Walleye season is currently closed until May 4, 2019. Tionesta Outflow Anglers are reminded that they must have purchased a trout permit to fish in the Tionesta Outflow, regardless of fishing for or keeping trout. Tionesta Lake (Nebraska Bridge) Water levels fluctuate which could cause the boat launch and road to become inaccessible. Anglers are catching crappie, Yellow Perch, and Bluegill from the bridge.  
 
Mercer County Shenango Reservoir The Shenango Reservoir is designated as a panfish enhancement area.  That means crappie must be 9 inches long and the creel limit has dropped from 50 to 20 crappie a day.  All other panfish still have a creel limit of 50, but only 20 of them can be crappie.

I'm worried there will be some stupid fish removal, draw-down, closure for 15 years (sarc) like Tamarack, Somerset, Donegal, etc.....
 
Anyone have any more current official info???  Thanks in advance!
 

 
If the PFGC has "anything" to do with it.... "WORRY".
 
Anyways here is a bit of info, taken from the Lakes web page, that you might find useful including a phone number to the 'fishes mouth'
 
 
"I hear the dam controls the water level of Canadohta. What are dates for Lowering the dam in the Fall and filling it back up in the spring"?
"The lake is lowered around end of October.The lake is filled in April of each year. Please call the Township office at 814-694-2611 for dates each year".
 
 
 
Hope the info helps, Good times and Tight lines.
 
 
  GOOD GRIEF... WTH was that BS??   Sorry.... think I got it fixed.   STUPID BS

i can tell you for a fact that the lake is at normal level. 
 
the public dock is not presently in, but should be in the next few weeks.
 
you can still launch, but bring waders.
