Walleye are out of season other than Pymy right now. In the past fished for Crappie and Pike this time of year at Arthur.
 
 I'm up Pymy now, son wanted to go out tomorrow but I told him maybe next time. We did pretty good on Crappy a few weeks back up this way. If after easier good eats can't beat Pymy or Erie right now.

Pymatuning is quite a haul for me and I’ve never been on it with a boat. I wouldn’t know where to start. Im more familiar with wilhelm.

Arthur is just so tempting because it’s pretty close and there will be way less pressure on it this time of year.

Looks like the rivers are off the table for at least a little while. The yough is over 9’ at sutersville and hasnt crested yet.

How far is Shenago Res for you? Tons of shore fishing this early. Jig under a float for Crappies. Trout season opens up next Saturday 🙄🤷‍♂️

Tomorrow is going to blow wherever you go!

It looks like shenango is about an hour and 15 min, which is about the same as wilhelm. A little too far to shoot up after work but if I felt like burning a day off it might be a good option.

I’ve never been to shenango. Don’t know a ton about it other than it got wipers (I think). Might be worth a look this spring tho. Unlimited hp right? I’m guessing it gets kinda crazy with pleasure boat traffic during the warmer months?

Wow Trout opener already?  My sister and her husband were up Pymy today to buy 24 cases of cultured stone for their cabin addition off of Tim. He asked me if I wanted to go with him first day near their place in Cooks Forest. Told him I haven't bought a Trout license in over 10 years but it might be nice to check out their new place and teach him how to fish.
 
 Dang back is hurting and couldn't figure out why. Now I know, was the only one tacking the large heavy cartons of stone off the pallets and setting in the yard to see what they liked. Oldest one there but must be the dumbest. Bringing back a pound of medium Fatheads tomorrow.

Yeah, looks like the kids get a crappy opening day tomorrow, my local creek is looking pretty muddy. I'll probably get a line wet next weekend, I'm making jigs this weekend.  

Son and I are on a cabin trip. Wet a line for a little yesterday. He got a nice crappie, I got a small perch. We were planning to do the mentored trout thing, but streams are blown out and wind is ridiculous. Hope it at least dries a bit to do some hiking. Hopefully he is willing to wet a line tomorrow.

 For you Trout fishers...
 
  

Might not be such a good opening day for those who fish trout streams. Quite a bit of rain in this area since mid morning on this day March 31.
