Thread: What I Saw Yesterday Pymatuning & Conneaut Lake

The South end of Conneaut Lake had a lot of open water and no fishermen but we did see 4 folks wandering around the North end of Conneaut Lake. No idea on ice thickness. Still waiting for the subzero and single digit low temps forecasted for NW PA but they keep pushing it back. I'm figuring on doing some jig tying and tackle organizing with the heater on in the basement. That is after the bride and I vac pack the steaks for the freezer....Take Care and Be Safe!

When i was a kid, my grandparents lived in Meadville and would take us to Conneaut lake amusement park where we rode the BlueStreak and the Wacky Mouse. Our favorite though was tossing bread to the carp at Pymatuning. Ducks would walk across the fish to get our fine offerings. No one wver believes me when I tell them that though.

My wife and I did about the same as you . We took a ride around the southern part of Pymy, there was a ton of people fishing from Jamestown docks to Stocker island. I talked to one guy said the ice was about 8 in. by the docks. We took a drive a little more north to Erie, drove out to the Coast Guard station on Presque Isle. The whole bay was frozen and probably 100 people fishing on it.

Not much left of the CL Park but the carp and ducks are still there.
