Thread: Shenango Lake

Zeke, i'll put todays catch away for our pymy get together this spring.

The docks are going in next week. All launches are open. Will not have to have a pass until the camp grounds opens for the year. Somewhere around the 15th of May. Bite is still slow.Another 6 -10 degrees and fishing should pick up.

Sounds good, Smitty! When is a good time for a pymy get together, usually? Do you have a time frame in mind? I hope we can have few more get togethers at various lakes like we used to. It was fun trying out some different areas. I have a few guys that I know would be interested.

Late May is a good time frame for a pretty good crappie bite with some walleyes still active in the same areas. Can take a mixed bag from the northend of Pymy or we can get some fair sized crappies from Shenango at that time. Let me know when and where and i'm in. I'll bring some of this KY fish to fry. I hope Sparky can make it too.

What do you think about maybe and early May get-together at Shenango and then plan something late May at pymy?

The young males are starting to hit the shoreline. Tuesday and Wednesday caught close to 50 fish and nothing really worth keeping. All in the 8-9 inch group. 5-7 feet down depending upon where your fishing. All the fish hit right at daylight and for an hour i was fun than they just plain up and stopped. Cats and muskies are showing up also. Water level seems to have come up just looking at the shoreline as I crossed 846 this morning.

The feed was on yesterday morning. Caught 1 walleye, 7 perch, 4 cats and 16 crappies. Missed probably 20 or so bites. The wind played havoc with setting the hook set. Also the bait store at 5 points was out of medium minnows so I used large and it may have been due to the size of the bait the fish were just grabbing the minnow and swimming off.

Good day on the water Sparkie. Cant believe I left Ky lake and came home to SNOW this late in April. Water temps will probably drop 10 degrees this week. What was it last week when the bite was on?
