Thread: Shenango lake

Was wondering about the spawn, and if there would be one, with the low temps this year. Considering that we were 20 degrees below, what it should have been, for so long. Heck, can't even get the garden started yet from all the rain we had. Did get 4 tomatoe plants, and a dozen pepper plants in, only because of putting them in containers. Would think though, that gills will still be able spawn.

They moved off the bank. Couldn’t find any fish today. Fished the upper end above Tara and nothing. Was fishing for walleyes the first 3 hours and not a hit. Tried for crappies for fun and couldn’t find them either. Water temp is 60. All the launches are open.

MAKE sure you take bug spray. Mosquitoes are horrible. Left my car door open putting the boat on the trailer and had at least 30 of them in the car.

Lake has risen almost 3 foot in the last 2 days. Caught 17 crappie this morning trolling 14 foot down. Not one would have been a keeper. Perch are starting to take over a lot of spots. Catching them on 3” lures trolling.

Lake is currently 4.25 feet above normal. Mahoney was open at 6 AM this morning but that may be subject to change.
