Conneaut Lake Info.

Wonderd if anyone had any information on where I can find a map of conneaut lake that would show me water depths and basic structure of the lake. I have a boat i got loaned to me and have been out a few times on conneaut, but haven't had much luck.  I know its a pretty deep lake, and I don't have any fish finder so a map would at least help me narrow down some places to target.

    Have you been doing very good out there?  Was out last week week w/ my dad and his buddy trying to find some crappie/big bluegills.  Ended up catching a few small perch and 2 keepers in about 4 hrs of fishing.  Seems to be the luck I normally have there.

    Not much luck here either. Although I don't really know what I am doing. I am just getting into fishing the last 2 years. I live about 3 miles from the lake and have a dock there so that is why I go there mostly. I have caught a few bass, allot of bluegill, and some crappy near the new aluminum docks near what the map is calling long tree point. Other areas of the lake all I catch is bowfins.

    heard the same thing about woodcock, PI bay, and few other places.  the old saying comes true should have been here yesterday...    fronts, moon phases, temp, and pressure both barometric and fishing all play a role in the bite.   they got to eat sometime right?

    Here's a write up from the Meadville Tribune.
    Sorry I can't make it a hyper link.
    Maybe someone else can.

    It was fun and we got to see the 47 inch musky at first light.  Massive girth on that fish!

    Be sure to check out the next tournament on Canadohta Lake on Feb 19 & 20

    Got 8 keeper gills south end. Not the best day but fun. Took about 2 hours to find them. Ice about a foot. No pike on tip ups
