Crawford County Report - WCO Joe Russell

Pymatuning Lake continues to be slow this week, but the water temperature is still up there. Lake levels as of today were almost two feet down from normal pool, so it doesn't take long during a warm day to heat up all the shallow water. The fishing hasn't stopped all together though, as Carp are still being caught in large numbers at the spillway. More information to come when the fall run starts and the Walleye start biting again.

Conneaut Lake has been very productive this last week with anglers reporting catches of quite a few good-sized Smallmouths and Largemouths. Bluegills are also doing extremely well with anglers limiting out after a couple hours of fishing. Conneaut Lake has cooled down quite a bit more than Pymatuning, however, probably because of the deeper water.

With the onset of an early goose season and duck season only weeks away, hunters are reminded that all boating laws apply when hunting from a canoe. One U.S. Coast Guard approved wearable life jacket must be on
board for each person in the boat and boats over 16-feet need a type IV throwable device. This has been law for many years now and we are going to make a concerted effort to make sure these laws are followed for the boating public's safety. Don't be surprised if officers are at boat ramp or a patrol boat stops you on the lake to check your safety equipment. We have a job to do and the public's best interest in mind.
