WESTERN CRAWFORD COUNTY, WCO Joe Russell Pymatuning Lake:
The water is warming up with all the recent nice weather and the warm water species seem to be hitting very well. Perch, Crappie, Bluegill, and Bass are all being caught in good numbers. The best results for the panfish continue to be worms or a jig floated under a bobber. Bass are hitting just about anything that moves right now so if what you have is not producing switch until you find something they like. The warm weather is also making for crowded ramps, so please be patient and wait your turn. This has not been a problem
so far. People are reminded that Pymatuning Lake is a State Park in both Ohio and Pennsylvania and as such, alcohol or even the possession of alcohol on the park property is a violation of the law and Can be punishable by up to 300.00 and 90 days in Jail. A drink is not worth that.
Conneaut Lake:
The lake is getting packed with more and more recreational boaters and less and less fishermen. The best times to fish this lake in the summer is either very early in the morning or very late in the evening. These are the prime hours before the Personal Watercraft (Jet Skis) and other boaters get out and get going.
