40 to 45 ft today. Harnesses 190' back. Was a bit warm out there🥵🥵🥵. I am utterly astounded at how clear that water is. I swear we could see down prolly 20feet.

If your talking Erie, you are not exaggerating.

Ya for sure Erie. I wont fish a smaller lake until guys started climbing in tree stands. Moraine has 100s of boats on it everyday.

I'm heading to Keystone State park for the weekend. Wish me well for the fishing. I'm figuring soft plastics and top waters should do good.

Not me Too HOT!

So i guess instead of just inline weights and a ton of line, out in that 40+, we r going to try some dispeys next trip. I've never used them but I'm sure I'll learn. Monday is supposed to be not as brutal for temps, hopefully they're not lying again.

Been out a few times recently at night for bass and cats. Getting bass at twin lakes, the cat and carp fishing has been slow. We need some rain!

I did take a trip up to the Redbank creek near New Bethlehem last weekend, a mix of bike riding and fishing. Caught a few smallmouth bass. First time fishing the Redbank, definitely has some potential.

I don't know about Erie, but I've used dipsy divers as well as lead core on area lakes.

Lead core is by far, much easier IMO.

we hit artie again hard last weekend.  
 
saturday night with my older son was pretty much dead where we went.  a spot where we've done ok before, but hadn't been to yet this year.  
 
sunday night and monday night with my youngest.  found a spot where the alewives were going real good.  got a ton of nice 1.5-3# largemouth on bombers and alewives along with some channel cats but no wipers.

Good luck! It’s been tough fishing with all of the angler and recreational activities. I’ve had luck with finesse fishing a weightless weedless senko and dropping it into vegetation. Even then only getting small bass to bite.
