-David- Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Hi Guys. Have a Crestliner 1650 Fish Hawk on Lake Nockamixon here in PA (a bit north of Philly). The lake has a 20 HP limit so this boat stays there 24/7. We also do lots of salt water but not in the Crestliner. Mostly hang out at the Hull but they are really better at off shore advice so hoping this place will be more informative. Quote

So far the fishing has been a challenge. Caught some nice ones but more often than not we return to the dock empty handed. Been on boats for many years so the 20 HP limit is very annoying and means that this boat is pretty much limited to there which is why we have a slip in the marina. Not too expensive at all and allows us to just go out for a few hours whenever we want without any hassle. Not sure about what sort of rentals are there but I do see signs for them - I think its mostly canoes and kayaks. Thanks for the info on Penn Warner, honestly never heard of it. Quote

I've been fishing penn warner my whole life, and i know there best there is a little over 8lbs but i heard someone caught a 10lber a couple years ago but there always having tournaments with the winning weight usually around 15lbs but the membership is like $750 and you have to register your boat with them and you pay by foot, same with your motor, but they have a website if you wanna look into it pennwarner.wm.com Quote
Super User smalljaw67 Posted March 5, 2015 Super User Posted March 5, 2015 Welcome!!! Most of the lakes in PA are Corps of Engineers flood control and they make for tough fishing, Nockamixion is better than what it used to be, should have tried it when there was no grass. That said, I do a lot of fishing in the Susquehanna and Juniata rivers, the only problem is fishing the susky you need a jet boat or float fish in a kayak or jon boat. Quote
