I've fished the locks on the Allegheny since I was 12 years old (I'm retired now at age 67). Mostly fished Locks 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9 and always from shore. I've caught walleye, catfish, musky, bass, and gar plus many other species. I always netted my bait (shiners) from behind the wall on the opposite side of the river from the lock itself. I haven't been up for the last 6 or 7 years because I have breathing problems (too many years in the mine). But now my new medication is helping and I want to go back! Is anyone fishing the locks, especially 8 and 9? I really need a report. Thanks in advance!
