Nah not that iron ridden stuff from a well, ice fishingYou talking about that water that won’t rinse off?
Just found this thread.I live 30 miles south of Erie so I fish all up and down the pa lake front a lot, mainly ELK Creek.
Off topic but, you hunt 143?Ahh yeah I think we've chatted before. It's coming back to me, I more specifically live in Pittsfield, lived in the area my whole life, my backyard is the Brokenstraw.
Occasionally, which is odd because I can see an edge of it from my front door. I have a lot of spots including some private though and I know 143 does get some pressure. I would like to spend some more time kicking around up there, it's big enough to get away from the pressure. I just haven't put in the time to find where that is.Off topic but, you hunt 143?
Used to be real good with light pressure during archery season until they opened the gates.Occasionally, which is odd because I can see an edge of it from my front door.

I have spent a good amount of time in it. had an opportunity at a giant but hit high and lost it a few years ago. The word has gotten out and it is becoming too crowded.Occasionally, which is odd because I can see an edge of it from my front door.

Back to fishing, hope the temps rising up here this week keep the crappie bite on. I live pretty close to Lake Erie, gonna give the bays and lagoons a shot this week.

Been wearing out the little creek bass around my house. River still high and chocolate-milky, but you can get into clean water if you're willing to wade or put in under a bridge. The maples and violets are blooming, and even though it was 30 this morning spring is very much in the air.
I've been seeing some species of sucker fish that I want to harass. I'm sitting at 35 species of freshwater fish that I've caught, and would like to bump 50 this year. We've got a lot of sucker species if I can learn to target them.
Do you log your catches or how do you keep track of how many species you've caught?View attachment 99977View attachment 99978

I have a pretty simple spreadsheet where I try to track species, watershed, and date on one page. The other is used to keep track of which counties I've fished.Do you log your catches or how do you keep track of how many species you've caught?
Yes, amish hammer it, I usually don't head down there.@7mmremmag or @Tknapp, either of you ever try the little lake right there in Sparty? If so do any good?
I figured the straw hats would hit it pretty hard. Was thinking of getting out on the 'yak sometime and trying it out.Yes, amish hammer it, I usually don't head down there.
I work in Union City so I try to hit UC reservoir, french creek, canadohta, or lake pleasant once a week on my lunch break when weather allows.
