There's normally a time between ice fishing and open water fishing. Other than the "Horrors of Linesville" where are you planning to fish open water first? Some like 'Bing' have hit the creeks for Steelhead, but where and what are you targeting? No hot spots need to be given just Where? What? and How? (boat or shore)

Conneaut Lake/ Bluegill/ Boat

Justus Lake for Early Season Trout



maybe Kahle Lake if I can get the boat in, but I have my doubts

Boca Grande,tarpon

cant wait to get the canoe out on misery bay and in the lagoons...gonna be looking for the crappie and perch...if the weather cooperates this all should be happening within 2 weeks

I slammed 25 crappies and 10 giant gills yesterday,only 2 fish came on a jig and wax worms,those little 1 inch gulp minnow are the bomb,even the 8-9 inch gills crushed them. The crappies where not monsters mostly 10 inches and 5 where over 11.

Shenango is 13' over its bank and they are letting alot out of the dam so...Volant here I come.

Kinzua creek for a little C&R

X2 For Justus
 French Creek and the Allegheny are blown,so it stands to reason the smaller tribs are too

Big Tuna ...pm sent.

Justus Lake is the place to go.
They stocked it with trout awhile back.
