CRAWFORD COUNTY

Pymatuning Lake
Dave @ Richter’s Tackle Shop; filed 3-13: With return of nasty
cold and wind, hardly anyone out. They are not even fishing off
the docks at Jamestown. Some reports of walleyes being caught
in the Shenango River below the dam including an 8 pounder a
couple weeks back. Nothing recent to report on the lake. I was
out on the lake last week one day when weather was better –
tried crappie fishing but nothing; planned to walleye fish into Richter provided photo

evening but wind came up and had to get off lake.

Patty @ Poff’s Place; filed 3-13: I had one fisherman stop by on way to Spillway. Nothing
to report. Looking for warm up!
