My family has a cottage in the Cochranton area near French. I don't know the stream very well yet, but I have been getting into some smallies in the Cochranton area, and in other stretches also. Some nice ones too. One evening I caught two eyes on two consecutive casts, but haven't really targeted them much yet.
I did a little more exploring on the creek this year and have been getting into bass near Saegertown, Meadville, and also down around Franklin. Also got an eye in Saegertown and lost a PIG walleye south of meadville. I usually can manage a handful of bass an outing, but nothing spectacular numbers wise. Like I said I haven't fully learned the creek yet.
