WESTERN CRAWFORD COUNTY / WCO Joe Russell Pymatuning Lake: The lake is frozen now and guys are hitting it hard. Most of the action is on the north end around Tuttle point, which is open now by the way. The south end is frozen as well now but the ice is a little thinner as it froze up last. Guys are telling me around 10" to 12" for the north end and 2" to 4" on the south. The best luck seems to be had between Tuttle and manning at the edges of the drop off for the old river bed. Be sure to dress warm as the wind howls across the open area of the ice. Conneaut Lake: The lake is frozen here as well but I have not seen anyone fishing it yet to be able to give you conditions or success stories. Crystal Lake: This small lake has been getting a lot of pressure lately and from what I understand guys are doing really well. I was informed of a 19" and a 17" largemouth taken through the ice using a large fat head minnow. there seems to be three or four fishermen here daily so they must be doing pretty good. Pioneer Fun Days: The annual pioneer fun days and winter carnival is fast approaching. It will be held on February 1 & 2 with snow mobile rides, arts and crafts, ice fishing demonstrations, ice rescue demonstrations, and numerous other programs, it promises to be a fun time for all the family. Get out and enjoy this mid winter break and I am sure you will be glad you did.
